Este tío se merece el Locus, el Nebula, el Hugo, un Oscar, dos Globos de Oro, el Princesa de Asturias y, si me apuras, hasta el Nobel. Ha sabido captar perfectamente lo que ha dado de sí 2020 (y parte de 2021) antes de que empezara. Conforme lo iba leyendo, me asombraba cada vez más que se hubiera publicado en 2019, antes del Covid, del asalto al Capitolio y del auge de las teorías de la conspiración más rocambolescas.

Quizá, sí lo hubiera leído cuando se publicó, me habría parecido un tanto descabellado y me hubiera gustado menos. Pero al leerlo después de una pandemia real, me asombra la capacidad de Wendig para vislumbrar la reacción de la humanidad ante un desafío de estas características.

La trama te atrapa desde el principio y los personajes que van apareciendo están muy bien construidos. Los giros de guion me han sorprendido y han hecho que me quedara a cuadros en varias ocasiones.

Un libro totalmente recomendable.

I enjoyed reading this very much in my fortysomethings, but I would have been absolutely mental for this book if I had read it when I was 15.
