kingpockets's review against another edition

Mystery, tension and an increasingly unreliable narrator.
Space Horror meets the mystery of the titanic but also has mega corporate villainy such as Amaz*n.

First of all, this is more of a thriller novel, not a horror one. but a good thriller nevertheless.
Too many characters were introduced in the beginning, which made it so confusing that I almost DNFed it, but the story got butter and better as I read.
Loved the writing style. I can't wait to read more from this author.

So here’s the thing. Not every book needs a twist. Especially not a the horror was the evil corporation all along. ESPECIALLY when we do have ghosts ! The vibe is the author wants to say something about capitalism but doesn’t really have anything past its icky. That’s not to say the book isn’t fun. The characters are engaging enough even only a few leave feeling really developed. Also I thought this was about a sunken ship not a space ship and I think that’s a failing of the publisher. It’s a popcorn book not a meal book but sometimes popcorn really hits the spot
