I'm a big fan of space horror. Mostly because space, as a concept, is vast and terrifying on its own. Add the claustrophobia of a spaceship and an unknown entity, and you have the makings of a good story. This story is good, very bleak and fast-paced. My only complaint is that the vast majority of the characters are kind of insufferable and there are so many of them that it got confusing. Especially because the author switched back and forth between using first and last names and the book wasn't long enough to really make them stick in my mind. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the story. 3.25 stars
