A review by kadota
The Darkness Outside Us by Eliot Schrefer
4.0
A book about a quest of rescuing a settler on one of the moons of Saturn; Titan. Two boys, sworn enemies, two different opposing states, embark on this mission to save Minerva; the settler. With no memories of the launch, forced to work along each other and relying on the spaceship's OS, the two boys are up for a conquest of love and secrets. What will make them survive in the hollowness of the space?
This was my first Sci-Fi book and it didn't disappoint. The concept of stars, space, planets, galaxies, fear of destruction, apocalypse, the harmony of science and the utterly amazing imagination of us humans, it was a spectacular read. It just makes you think of many things, as well as the story and the characters just warm your heart up.
This book, it had kept me up until the dawn and also had made my worst days better (when I started it earlier this year, but couldn't complete at that time).
Also, this book was warm, like a hug, but it did leave me with a jarringly cold sensation of emptiness.
It is soft yet rough at edges and it is warm but with a cold sensation, also it is beautiful yet daunting
