"Mankind has long dreamed of reaching out to live on other planets, and with the establishment of the Mars Endeavour colony, that dream has become reality. The fledgling colony consists of 120 scientists, astronauts, medical staff, and engineers. Buried deep underground, they're protected from the harsh radiation that sterilizes the surface of the planet. The colony is prepared for every eventuality except one--what happens when disaster strikes Earth?"--

Review of 'Retrograde' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I had a very strange feeling whilst reading the opening chapters of this, as if I’d started it before and not finished it. Odd, given that I’ve never given Cawdron less than 3 stars.

This was exciting, and seemed to be on-point scientifically too. I loved the big reveal in chapter 10 but would have been a bit flat at the ending had I not known there was a sequel in the works.
