adventurous dark tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

This is the perfect place to insert a spiritual element to this saga because humanity is literally at the edge of known space. Representatives from many of humanity's religions are headed towards the edge of space, but only one of them suspects that the person who needs spiritual/soul guidance the most is someone who started the journey with them. Anna and Melba/Clarissa's story is by far the most compelling in the book, particularly Melba's slow descent into insanity after her first murder.

I am disheartened to learn that in this near future, there is still no cure nor relief from migraine attacks.
