Justin Cronin: Ferryman (2023, Random House Publishing Group) 4 stars

A bit hit and miss

3 stars

This started out as an interesting description of life in a futuristic utopian society, before becoming quite confusing and messy. About two thirds of the way through it descends into a nightmarish hellscape of what seems to be illogical and irrelevant dream sequences. The reason for this is eventually revealed but it never quite felt properly satisfying.

The characters are all just about believable and relatable but I never felt like I really cared about any of them.

Overall maybe worth a read, but not mind-blowing.
