Dark Matter hooked me immediately. I couldn’t wait to read more, more, more. There’s a short scientific explanation that may make some eyes go cross, but it was just enough for me to imagine it could be real at all — making the gravity of the situation all the more dark and emotional. Some moments fell short, but not to the extent that I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. It’s worth placing yourself in the shoes of the character and wondering how you would overcome each scenario. I would love a sequel.
