I was a bit apprehensive going into this one after loving Dark Matter and being a bit disappointed in Recursion.
Luckily, Blake Crouch did not disappoint!! This was amazing and I may have loved it more than Dark Matter? Yet to be determined
This read like a thriller for most of the book and the plot was just the perfect amount of easy to understand science fiction.
Somehow Crouch is able to get to the bottom of humanity and the struggles we face between species survival, research ethics, evolution, and the environment.
I can’t share a small teaser for the plot here in fear of spoilers so just consider this: Is it ethical to use experimental research to ensure the survival of Homo sapiens?
