Forty thousand years ago, humanity fled a dying Earth. Traveling in massive arkships, these brave pioneers spread out across the galaxy to find a new home. After traveling thousands of light-years, one fleet of arkships arrived at Centauri, a dense cluster of stars with a vast array of potentially habitable planets. The survivors of Earth signaled to the remaining arkships that humanity had finally found its new home among the stars.

Ive heard a lot of good things about this book on the internet, which was the main reason why I have chosen to buy and reading this book, I gotta admit that this book is one of those way too overhyped books which I regret reading. 

The plot in this book had a lot of potential to actually being good. But in my opinion this book has way too events and characters to keep track of which made it very confusing to me personally. Because the author just bombards us with a truck load of information and characters at once. In my opinion it would have been better if the author tried to ease us as readers to all of the information which is relevant to this book rather than just throw all of those informations at once at us. 

The plot in this book was very predictable and contained a lot of generic SCI-FI jargon which didn’t let the plot anywhere, which really made this book disappointed by this book. Because the plot in this book had a fair share of potential which apparently the author decided to trash instead of use in this book.

The characters in this book are pretty shallow. There are too many characters which we get their point of few from, which means we don’t spend a lot of time with each of the characters in this book. Which means we don’t get a lot of sense of the personalities and quirks each character has, which made them seem very shallow and boring to be very honest here. At the same time the different point of views we get in this book, makes it seem like the author couldn’t decide who was the main character in this book and which character weren’t as relevant to the story as others. 

All of the characters in this book have the same pattern of thinking and doing things on, which made me constantly question which point of view we are currently following in this book. Which also made it very hard for me personally telling the characters apart in this book because they all seemed the same to me personally. Because there was nothing making the characters standout from each other and actually be likable in ay way.

A lot of the chapters in this book start off with describing different environments to just switch it without a warning to a character minding their own business and going to talk to someone else. Which made me question why the lengthy descriptions at the beginning of most chapters were even there if they weren’t that relevant in this book.

The writing style in this book was very generic in this book but also very high school textbook like. Which made me think that the author didn’t care about this book to actually make it fun to read. 

I Give This Book 1 / 5
