The 100 meets space-based sci-fi… with a monster twist! 🚀👀
I really enjoyed the concept of this story. Set in space following a monster attack, we follow three main characters who have escaped and are training while trying to find the heart on Earth. It was an interesting premise, and I loved the combination of space, survival and the mystery surrounding the monsters.
All three characters were likeable, and I particularly enjoyed having strong FMC and MMC leads. It was easy to get invested in their journey and want to see what would happen next.
The space setting and sci-fi elements were also interesting, with a mix of technology, scientific concepts and the challenges of surviving in space. I enjoyed how the story explored morality, humanity and survival, making you think about what people are willing to do when their lives are on the line and what it really means to hold onto your humanity.
I'll admit, it took me a little while to get into the story and understand the world and what was happening. It's a slow build, with much of the action initially coming through the training sections. However, once I got my head around the concept and the world-building, I found myself becoming more invested in the story.
The last 20% really picked up, and we finally started seeing more action! The epilogue also gave us our first glimpse of the monsters, and that cliffhanger has me wanting to know what happens next!
Overall, I enjoyed this one! If you enjoy space-based sci-fi, survival stories, strong characters and stories that explore what it means to be human, this could be one to add to your TBR.
Thank you to M.M Price for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
