Absolute Zero by David Lunde
5.0
This collection is a nominee for the 2019 Elgin Award.
This was my favorite this year. I read it from beginning to end, didn't skip anything. The poetry alternates between the whimsical and the serious often within the same poem. There's lots of "Science", which I like, lots of space and typical SF tropes, which I also like. It is completely accessible and not at all pretentious or inscrutable, which some people accuse hard SF poetry of being. Not at all. Highly recommended. Go read it.
