This was not in the same league as The Martian or Project Hail Mary. Not so mind engaging, not so interesting.
It was an enjoyable, fast paced read but struck me more as a young adult adventure than something deeper.

Enjoyable, engaging, snappy sci-fi
I was just looking for a little palate cleanser and this was perfect. A short book, a quick read ... and have ordered the next in the series!
What was meant to pass for magic realism was more like continuing dream-sequences followed by and-then-I-woke-up
Don't know wtf I kept reading
This started out as 4-5 star read. Ripping page turner with a great premise, excellent character development and interaction, well written dialogue. If only it had finished half way through. The second half of the book was an anchor that dragged it down to boredom and cliched triteness.
Could not get into the G R R Martin so thought i might slip into this ... but it wasn't the right time for a reread
** LIKE
A lot of blah blah blah for the introductory book for a trilogy.
Too many characters; too shallow; too ridiculous,
