Started this book Sept 2019.
The long time it took me to finish isn’t evidence of it being bad. Life got busy for a bit, interests temporarily changed, and I focused elsewhere.

An alien horror novel is perfect for these strange times we are enduring. It felt like I was reading a movie which I assume is intentional on Cesare’s part. I’ve watched his YouTube channel a few times and know he is a (horror) movie buff. He’s got the formula down for an enticing creature-feature novel with cinema-quality creepiness and layered characters to care about.

It was quite an adventure and honestly, I’d love a silver screen adaptation of this at some point. I anticipate his next novel which is due out this autumn.
