This is a rare occasion when I was so engrossed in any of the SF books. The characters, science is so believable and sounds very relatable but has a lot of scientific flaws. Don't dig deep there.

It's a journey in the history of science and modern cutting-edge technological advances.

I loved this first volume and looking for answers in the second and third.

Got lost in the sci Fi explanations sometimes, but they were later woven into the plot pretty seamlessly. Audiobook narrator did an amazing job!

There’s no denying that this is a masterful piece of science fiction - original, engaging, and crafted for a clever, scientifically minded reader.
