Review of 'Five Minds' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Wow. If I had to recommend just one book from this year, Five Minds could well be it, certainly tied up there with Andy Weir.

The execution feels flawless, and so many of the books elements – the mental incongruity of being in a different body, the reliability (or otherwise) of each flawed narrator and the thought-out structure of a postdeath society all fall so neatly into place that the worldbuilding feels effortless. The games, the bars, the kingpins and the desperation of the sad societal dregs all hit their spots. I was engaged from the offset, enjoyed every twist. One to reread someday and no mistake.
