Just so good

I got this on a whim. Looked and sounded interesting and wow I was so amazed. Really funny and heartwarming. Will be listening to this again.

Beautiful Sci-fi

One of the best sci fi audiobooks I read in a while. Almost brought me to tears several times , I haven't wanted to meet a character more since reading Anne McCarthy. I hope there is a epilogue or continuation in future. The performance intertwines with the writing to evaluate the tale and while I disagree with some of the ideas it's portrayal of anxiety and personal thought was deeply impactful.

Fantastic

I loved this book so much. The way the MCs neurodivergent thought process is recounted is so well done imo. Just so good thanks for writing this.

Best characterization of an MC with A.D.D. yet

I was amazed! I came for the hivemind, stayed for the amazing characters, character progression and slowly becoming both less and mroe human.

I've read some of Thundamoo's previous work and was taken by her portrait of morally 'grey' characters in a 'grey' ethical world.

But here she ventures into the moral minefield of what I would mean to loose your individuality and the change in perspective that would bring. All done with some amazing and endearingly unique main characters.

Deals very well with social anxiety and a.d.d. both with an understanding and level headedness rarely seen in books, let alone SciFi.

I wish there was more!

I did not expect it to be this good

Just finished listening, and frankly, I am bowled over by this book. It combines easy listening at the beginning to complex thought patterns and follows up with a strong ending. Thought provoking and well read. There are moments where the text conversations could be better read out loud, but I feel these are suited in a book format. Honestly, it is worth your time listening to this book and to the author: if you have more ideas, it would be a delight to explore them 🙂

incredible

if I'm being completely honest I wasn't expecting such an in-depth story or characters, this book, aside from being an incredible story, is something I feel would be great reading for many schools, the science, moral dilemmas, and hints at the economic state of our world are thought provoking as well as being a joy to listen to. also as a fellow Zerg lover I was only slightly 'completely' biased towards a book about hiveminds 😁

What a Book!

Took a chance on this one, not really knowing what to expect. I am very glad that I did. It explores some fascinating alien concepts and touches on some weighty subjects, all while staying at its core deeply human! Well worth a credit!

Single-handedly one of the best audiobooks I have ever listened to

The narrator does a great job and the story is amazing, I really hope the author will make a sequel.

A cut above

Fascinating story. Great concept. Perfect narrator. I am truly impressed with this author. The book is deep and dark and funny and sad. Definitely a cut above the usual examples of this genre. On a par with the wandering inn series and He who fights with monsters in terms of quality. If you enjoy science fiction and fantasy that is more Star Trek than Hogwarts, this is for you.
