Do You Dream of Terra-Two? by Temi Oh

zombiezami's review against another edition

adventurous dark emotional mysterious reflective tense medium-paced

5.0

This is some of the best science fiction, specifically space science fiction, I've ever read. The author masterfully captures the dichotomy between the hope of space travel, especially as a way to save humans from themselves, and the reality of the nationalism and child abuse that would occur if children were trained up to participate in it from a young age. The fact that things were already going off the rails before the group even got into space goes to show how willing governments are to screw over their best and brightest for political capital. So many cover-ups and scandals.
