Originally stumbled across this book as a facebook recommended event for the author's book signing in my hometown(sadly couldn't make it). A huge fan of all things space, the cover caught my eye. Figured if I didn't get into the book it would at least look nice on my bookshelf, but I got hooked immediately.
The story was exciting and the writing exhilarating I found my heart racing with the characters' as they tucked and rolled through hallways and soared through space. (If you really want an in-depth experience, I highly recommend reading during a flight with some turbulence, definitely not for the faint of heart.)
When I originally looked into the book I basically read "exciting space adventure!" and immediately pre ordered it that's all I needed to give it a shot. I definitely did not expect such diverse characters with creative/unique backgrounds it was a pleasant surprise and like a nice breath of fresh air.
I was personally never bored while reading this and there were no slow points for me. There were times I just had to read 3-4 chapters in a sitting because it was too good to put down. But also calming, weighted moments to breathe and chapters ending on subtle cliffhangers where I could allow myself to close the book and finally go to bed.
I think anyone, at any age, who loves space or just adventure would enjoy reading this book. And England's amazingly descriptive writing style allowed me to see the character's reactions, feel their emotions and, most amazingly to me, experience a world I've never seen or imagined before.
I usually finish a book like this wishing I could actually see what the characters and the worlds they're exploring look like (the reason I usually prefer games and movies), but as I closed the book, I felt as though I had experienced it all myself right along side them.
