![]() It really is a story about a long, open ended, journey. The ‘small angry planet’ they are travelling to doesn’t actually emerge as a destination until about halfway through, and there is no central conflict. Ostensibly the story follows the crew aboard ‘The Wayfarer’, a spaceship that punches tunnels through space as though tunnelling through the rock in a mountain. The narrative structure is unusual, and there really isn’t much action, because the story is far more focused on exploring the individual story arcs of the ensemble cast of characters. Perfect audiobook narration (seriously, audiobook all the way for this one!) ![]() ![]() ![]() There are about a hundred reasons for my love affair with this book including:ĭistinct lack of love triangles (I’m looking at you YA sci-fi romance fluff) Definitely one of the most interesting strict sci-fi novels that I have read in years. ![]()
