Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The first rule is the most important: 'always run, never fight'.

Over 100 generations, Mia's family has shaped Earth's history to push humanity to the stars, making brutal, wrenching choices along the way.

And now Mia finds herself about to help launch the first people into space. She can't take them to the stars, not quite yet. But with her adversary almost upon her, and with the future of the planet at stake, it's becoming clearer that obeying the first rule is no longer an option.

For the first time since her line's first generation, Mia will have to choose to stand her ground, knowing that the overwhelming odds mean that she risks not only her bloodline, but also the future of the human race.

Showing that truth is stranger than fiction, Sylvain Neuvel weaves a sci-fi thriller reminiscent of Blake Crouch and Andy Weir in Until the Last of Me, blending a fast-moving, darkly satirical look at the 1960s space race with an exploration of the amorality of progress and the nature of violence.

Another short one, good but short.


It's clear from the further reading section that the author does a lot of research into the subject before weaving it into his story and that is much appreciated and probably accounts for time between part 1 and part 2 being released.

Performances were on par with the first in the series which were great and the story is a good continuation. It's just so short.

I just wish the story could have been fleshed out a little more increasing the duration for a couple more hours. If you discount the authors notes notes at the end then you barely get 8 hours of story.

Enthralling story. Can't wait for the next one...

I love the fact that the story integrates with real historic events very cleverly and seamlessly.
