Corey reviewed Something more than night by Ian Tregillis
Review of 'Something more than night' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
That would have been enough for most authors, but Tregellis goes further with his world-building, rooting his heavens in a scientific mishmash of quantum and particle physics. He also layers the story over a dystopian background, humanity eking out its survival in a world where the ocean is dead, space is nothing but debris, and the end of everything seems more and more likely. It’s a hell of a fine tale, brilliant in spots, and never less than utterly captivating. All the pseudo-science and theological theorizing means the novel may deserve a reread to fully parse all of the ideas, but Bayliss’ tale never bogs down even when concepts are whizzing a full metre above my head, i.e. I’m kinda dumb. I don’t know if there’s any possibility of a Bayliss sequel, but I’d be up for it in a heartbeat.
