I heard a recommendation for this book/series and within a few days found myself reading it, skipping the the top of the long list of books I have. I'm glad i picked it up straight away.

Living deep below the surface of Mars, Darrow is content living his hard but simple life. His wife shows him a glimpse of a reality he doesn't understand that hints that the world is a lot different than he has been led to believe. A horrific tragedy sets him on a path to fight for the freedom of his people.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. Ursula K. Le Guin was a treasure.

I enjoy these series from Edward Robertson. The banter and sarcasm between Dante and Blays and other characters makes them more relatable than some traditional high fantasy books. This one took a little longer to read but possibly more to do with me being pressed for time rather than the book content. Looking forward to the next book to continue with the story.

I possibly enjoyed this more than Glass and Gardens: Solarpunk Summers.

I enjoy the casual banter between the main characters in this series. It differs from the original trilogy in that it isn't obvious who the ultimate antagonist is and what their goal is.
