Lee was devastated, not knowing what had happened to her friend. She thought her lost forever, until four years later she receives a phone call from her friend asking for a meeting. While this is happening a top British scientist, Dr. Kay Khan, has recently begun to theorize there are not only multiple realities, but the fabric between them is wearing down resulting in holes allowing ‘others’ to slip through.This sounds amazing! I admit, much like you, I’m not usually a fan of contemporary and I’ve never read a book by this author, although I decisively regret that!

You got this far, you know what’s coming: NOT recommended! Unless you are a masochist, in which case, go ahead and frolic in the misery. I must say that I wasn’t very sure while reading the synopsis, but i was very intrigued from your review! The characters sound very interesting and you can feel the love you had for this novel! I love novels that travel to different worlds, so I will surely add this to my list x The lesson here is that the Earth doesn’t care; that bad things happen; that it could so easily have been us.” Special thanks to my Patrons on Patreon for giving me extra support towards my passion for reading and reviewing! Arthur C. Clarke Award–winner Tchaikovsky (Children of Ruin) transports readers to a bleak dystopia in this powerful story of class conflict and climate crisis.

Seriously, mind blown starting at the space-faring trilobites. And Fungus as God. Oh, and what an eye-roll at that pandering cat-world! Everything more I could say would be spoilers, so I won't. As an aside, if you thought Dark Matter failed to live up to the sci-fi premise, this is the book for you. I went from considering abandoning it, to a better mood, to wondering if it was another entry by T. into Sci-Fi Canon.
