If your brain is too fried to keep track of names that are not Eurocentric, that’s on you. Not the author. This is an incredible piece of fiction. Can’t wait to pick up the other two.

This book is one of the most captivating pieces of literature to me, it was HONESTLY a pleasure to read.

Hard to keep all characters straight

I realize this is the “it” SF novel right now but the core idea is simply too silly. It’s like those James Bond stories where the major villain has his own space program, his own nuclear submarines, and his ambition is to get some ransom money. The aliens can fold a universe into a proton but they want to conquer Earth. Why?

Loved it

Such a great read. Loved the book from start to finish. Can’t wait to read the 2nd book. Thanks for the thoughtful, challenging writing.

This book was hard to get through for me. I like narrative driven stories and for the most part, this was not following a single protagonist who made a significant change to the narrative. It’s more like the story happened 30-40 years ago and now our protagonist is barely catching wind of it and the end results are to be determined. It’s the best way I can describe it. It was interesting but not engaging. It didn’t grip me. It just seemed like this book was leading to what the main story was going to be and whether all this will affect the story at the end is TBD with the other books. But hey that’s just my personal opinion.

A great sci fi

Fascinating and terrifying thrill ride

A science fiction tale based on hard science. At times ponderous and at times page turning. Well written. The story is not unique, but the telling of it is. Highly recommend if the reader wishes a hard science fiction tale with colorful characters and a different spin on an invasion story.
