Books that are set in space are always interesting, and the storyline in this one is really great!! Our protagonist, Jim, is an relatable character who is incredibly intriguing, but that may be because he creates himself over and over to keep from dying. But really, now I can’t get that out of my mind!!! Cloning himself to survive. Craziness!!!
The details of this whole endeavor are so believable that I wonder if something like this will happen to people when/if space travel begins to happen more frequently. And also, I love this idea where Jim is talking to himself. My mind is kind of blowing up here.
I do love how short and compact the story is also. I’ve been attempting to read Seveneves by Neal Stephenson for a very long time. Seveneves reminds me a lot of this work, but I enjoyed this so much more than I’ve been enjoying Seveneves. To me, I like this much more as it focuses more on the relationships and what’s going on with them rather than all of the technical jargon that is mostly, I’m sorry to say, boring to me.
I recommend this to those who love books set in space with a bit of drama, some violence, a little love (I mean a lot of sex!! Lol) and really seems to have something for everyone.
Thanks so much to Zeb Haradon for allowing me to read this for an honest and unbiased opinion!!
