Jumpy goodness

I just. NO WORDS!!! I have been mass reading all day so I could finish this and it was so worth it. I can not wait to read the rest of the series... Now I need to order them.

Space! Viruses! Evil Robots!

Great mix of science fiction. Also love the unique writing format.

Well that was a wild ride!

Ebook could never do this justice. This book is art. In itself, that was amazing to have in my hands. This was written in such a unique format. A compilation of chats, emails, maps of battleships, and more. It reminded me a bit of Battlestar Galactica on the urgency of impending doom. A bit Asimov with an AI you aren't sure is good or bad. A twist of Umbrella Corporation. I was hesitant at the formatting at how it would be, but I got sucked in so quickly and couldn't put it down.

Super Duper Good!

Oh my... This book was great. It's probably my new favorite book, ever. It sucks you right in and doesn't let go. There's so much going on, a little bit for everyone. Science fiction, horror (I thought so, but I'm a scaredy cat, so), and some romance. Ugh, it was so good. Anyway, it's told through different files, like interviews and chats and etc. The story is stunning and the pages are beautiful. This isn't the most professional review, but hopefully, I got my point across... Yeah, I would definitely recommend.
