Dark Eden by Chris Beckett

4.0

Not your typical colonization book, nor your typical ya. There is the extrapolated changes in language which read kind of simple, a bit of a dumbing down. There is the absolute inclusion of kind of in your face sex though far from explicit. Oh and it's not much of a spoiler and it's not hidden, there is the incest. The characters are a bit cardboard and obvious. And the science is perhaps not all that good. But still it is an interested setup for a story and readable and worth reading. 3.5 of 5.
