Enjoyed listening to this sequel. Like the first, at some point the story started to drag in parts, but not enough to really bother me.

This was a fast, fun and engaging read. I'm a Hank Green fan from listening to the Dear Hank and John podcast and watching Hank on TikTok. It was fun to see how things he talks about in these fit into and illuminated this science fiction story.
The two-part series was all wrapped up with this one, but I'd be okay if he found a way to extend the story.

Not as good as the first book, found it dull and anti climatic

Oh Hank, how I love your quirky self. I was totally enthralled with the wrap up of The Carls. Very creative writing, although I did feel the plot of Altus felt reminiscent of Ready Player One. I would come back for a third book. Loved the writing and the characters.

I read both of these books together, and I think I liked this one more. Hearing from more different perspectives made the first half more suspenseful and the world building as a whole feel a lot more complete. It was also a lot of fun, and the mystery was delightfully paced. There were a lot of soapbox moments but they were balanced by so much sincerity and action that it worked for me.
Also, I can't believe how I was thinking of this as a COVID book (which, it still is) when it's also a What If The Metaverse Was Actually What It Said It Would Be book
