I can say with certainty that this is unlike any book I have ever read before. Lots of books bend the rules of structure and convention, to varying degrees of success. This one does it masterfully. Not to mention it had me an absolute nervous wreck for most of the time.

There’s some genuinely amazing talent in these pages. Some of the themes explored here rivaled what David Arnold did with The Electric Kingdom. But let me just tell you….you are not ready for the shit that goes down around the halfway point. I might have rated this 4 stars if it weren’t for the absolutely mind-blowing twists that are expertly paced from the midpoint forward. The story becomes absolutely propulsive and demanding that you finish. I finished in two days, and that’s even while working on a manuscript of my own.

I genuinely thought this was going to be “cute gay astronauts fall in love” and BOY, was it ever NOT that. But that’s all I’ll say. Go into this one knowing as little as possible. It’s honestly quite a beautiful story, with something for readers of many genre preferences.
