Ghost Station by S.A. Barnes
4.0
S.A. Barnes returns with a new space horror that will leave you guessing and creeped out. I love space horror for its isolated settings and the terror of nature and the unknown.
In this future world, planets are owned by different corporations. They send teams to scout them and gather samples. These Reclamation and Exploration teams are isolated and close-knit. When Psychologist Dr. Ophelia Bray is added to the crew of Resilience, she is met with opposition.
Ophelia is desperate to make a difference, she’s running from a controlling family and a mistake she made in her past. Focused on proving herself and her research, she tries to help the crew through the loss of their former teammate.
On the planet, things are not as expected. The previous crew left the station in mysterious condition, and things are anything but routine. Is it madness? Is it something worse?
The world-building is excellent, subtle, and three-dimensional. I completely understood the economy, politics, and business choices of big corporations owning planets. I loved the crew, the mysteries, the terrors of space. I highly recommend it!
Thank you, Tor books, for the advanced copy.
