Truly a hate crime that this is not widely read. Granted, there's some mis-marketing. This is not the MM enemies-to-lovers romance in space I expected but it's SO MUCH BETTER. Not the book to Read for an HEA but if you want a truly compelling Sci Fi novel that is deeply thought provoking and driven by complex characters making impossible choices, I cannot recommend this book enough.
The book can be described as a mystery-thriller/horror/sci fi novel with elements of MM romance (but they are very secondary to the plot). The two main characters are on a mission to Titan, the moon of Saturn, to rescue the sister of one of the two astronauts who went there on a previous expedition. They are each from rival countries collaborating on a mission to sustain human life but everything is not as it seems.
I feel utterly transformed. This is why I read!
One of my top reads of the year! I loved it
One of my favorite MM books
This is one of my favorites that I’ve read this year
Just finished it (the first book) planning on reading the second one tomorrow. All I can say is that you should read it, give it a chance and you'll never regret it at the end ( i promise ). What a roller coaster of a read. The author is really good, the fact that he had help by people with expertise on matters such as space and time and science tells you that he is very dedicated to making the story as real and correct. I've connected deeply. I love love this story.
Have you read the 2nd book? Just wondering if it’s just as good. My holds are all up, and I’m trying to map out January. Already have the first on hold! Thanks for taking the time to share and post, can’t wait to read!
Just finished the first one today. I have the 2nd on hold from the library though :)
I didn’t know that it wasn’t a typical HEA romance (except in space), thank you for informing me. That rly was what the marketing and cover made it sound. I’ll give this one a try!!
This book was recommended to me, I think after I read Red White and Royal Blue. I listened to the audio on my walks. I was blown away by the story. I would recommend going in blind; don't read reviews because some can contain spoilers. I also highly recommend the audiobook as well.
This is one of my favorite books and I've luckily gotten a lot of friends to read it. I was recommended it in a random reddit thread about under appreciated books. It's seriously a hidden gem with a dorky cover, anyone who like sci-fi and space thrillers would adore it!
Can you please repost this and include some information on what the book is about?
I edited it with more details. Does that work?
You bet! Thanks.
