This book started out really good by giving us a very diverse cast. Men. Women. People from around the globe. An asexual and a gay dude!
Which made it all the more jarring that one of these characters was homophobic. But, alright, we apparently needed some infighting and tension.
But. What really bothered me is that nobody spoke up against the homophobic guy. Everyone was uncomfortable. And nobody seemed to be agreeing with him. But nobody spoke up. Nobody told him to shut up or keep it to himself. But they DID tell the gay dude to not escalate things, to not speak back, to not defend himself.
That.. made me really uncomfortable and took a lot away from what would otherwise have been an excellent sci-fi horror book

The more I think about this book the more annoyed I get.
It doesn't feel like I read a book.
It feels like I read a third of a book.
The settings is prepared, we got to know some characters, but nothing really happened. They kept saying they needed to prepare for stuff, and do stuff but they never came to that point.
And then the book ends on an ~~ cliff hanger ~~
expect not really, they just introduced another person and somehow that was going to be an shocking event even tho they gave us huge hints that that dude was where he was.
Which makes the whole thing really idiotic considering there are 4 books out and they're all 200 pages. It just feels like a money grab to sell multiple incomplete books.
