adventurous inspiring tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No

• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

2.0

I removed one star for each use of the word “ghetto” to describe anything. This book is obviously well researched in terms of the space travel aspects but the humor was a big miss for me.
