byrdies 's review for:

Dead Astronauts: A Novel by Jeff VanderMeer
3.0
dark hopeful mysterious fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This is definitely not VanderMeer's strongest work, but as always he deserves props for originality both in style and subject matter. Of the 2 books under the "Borne" umbrella this one is definitely the superior, but I still wouldn't necessarily recommend either book
