I didn’t LOVE either Illuminae or Gemina, but Obsidio felt like an especially weak installment to me. If you ever felt like reading it, gauge your interest based on the spot-on synopsis I just wrote - but be advised my wit and charm is NOT included. the teens win!!! until next time, corporate greed!!!īoom. wow they narrowly saved everyone, or at least a good chunk of everyone, against all the odds and using a complicated pseudo-science principle
insert summaries of surveillance footage with quirky jokes and physical descriptions x 2000 insert chat logs with the same banter structure here x 1000 this makes people realize they are in love with each other! cool. like wow guys seriously they are really close to dying!! one of them is even shot, maybe. the teens must do CRAZY, ORIGINAL stuff, like crawl through ventilation ducts and brush with death they will be together though, and flirt a lot in order to cruelly detract from the book’s waning entertainment value two of these unrelentingly straight teens should not be together, because they probably have been together previously or otherwise one has been sexually harassing the other (shoutout to Nik!) the teens are funny and edgy and heterosexual
ragtag group of space citizens is ruthlessly attacked by corporate greed Here’s Illuminae AND Gemina AND Obsidio in one go:
I’d be remiss if I didn’t well and truly call these books out for being the exact same thing every time. What’s not to love?Įxcept for all the things there are not to love about it, and also that all three books are exactly the same, following the exact same plotline and just throwing a couple more characters in for flair, like if the Lunar Chronicles followed the same arc every time but for some reason an ever-growing cast of kids with fairytale-y names were along for the ride. Unique formatting but it’s like 700 pages long so you feel accomplished.
