Not as strong as the original (expected really) but still indulgent with some reminiscent and topical themes.

My favourite quote from the first few chapters; “I’m not even tone deaf, that’s the arse-mothering, fuck-nosed, bugger-sucking wank of the thing. I’m not even tone fucking deaf. I’m tone DUMB.” (I do love an eloquent expletive rant from Fry).

One of our greatest storytellers provides 3 short stories with miraculous twists at the end. I could have read more.

Lots of character and plot development that concludes with a weak ending. After investing 3 books time, I’m left slightly vexed.

Nice idea to experiment with this concept but it’s clearly too early to use with such a standard formulaic style that’s so predictable.

I love a plot like this, mixing up global crisis with space travel, and the characters lend towards a classic relationship dynamic growing but it feels like some crucial detail is skipped over. Far too many silly typos also suggest minimal editorial review.

I’m currently working on a personal side project which extends my portfolio but shares some professional tools I’ve designed recently. As part of that, I want to create content that compliments it so I want to establish my USP and tone of voice, how to stand out from the herd and be more me. I expected more substance and useful takeaways from Meera as I’ve enjoyed previous publications from her but it seemed to shift to the audience focus towards the second half.

Fascinating story from culture I’ve always adored for music, art and pivotal moments.
