If you want to be stressed for ten hours I recommend this audiobook!
Such a grueling journey to the alien hole. Whenever something would happen, I would be screaming in my head GO BACK GO BACK GO BACK but they just kept going onward. As a plus, the audiobook had music and sound effects (such as radio static over the comms) which made the book that much better of an experience.
Like To Sleep in a Sea of Stars, this book is well-researched and it feels like the characters are really professionals in what they do.
I was really satisfied with the character development of the main character in the end, but was dissatisfied with the others. I felt like I wanted to know more about the others’ backstories in more depth in relation to their decision-making. I wanted to know exactly what happened to them that wounded them. I also wanted to know more about the world and have at least an inkling of an answer in the end. So, though I enjoyed this, I didn’t enjoy it as much as To Sleep.
