Review of 'One Way' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
An engrossing read following the trajectories of Frank Kittridge and Bruno Tiller.
One Way: both the definition of a trip for those with absolutely no power, and for one who has absolute power.
2035: The contract for the robotic and fully automatic systems construction of a permanent settlement on Mars has been awarded.
2047: Seven convicts are on their way to construct the Mars settlement.
Those with power set the rules. Given time and greed the rules change, and those who feel they are now gods see people as pawns. When given permission it makes it easier to take the shortcuts, to rationalize anything.
Hard science fiction with a well paced story.
I received an Advance Reader Copy from NetGalley and Orbit Books in exchange for an honest review.
