patlo 's review for:

In Ascension by Martin MacInnes
5.0
adventurous challenging dark inspiring mysterious reflective tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Majestic, mind shifting, mysterious, glorious. One of those novels I will never forget reading.

It’s like nothing I’ve ever read; the comparisons to Andy Weir etc fall flat.

Excellent character based literary sci-fi; read if you don’t need clear explanations and big action scenes.
