A review by aerofinity
Plutoshine by Lucy Kissick
5.0
A powerful book. It’s been a long time since I’ve been hit this hard emotionally by a novel. Lucy Kissick weaves an engrossing narrative, with deep and hard hitting relationships, coupled with a creeping sense of dread and discovery in an utterly flawless way.
The way this story is unfurled, the perfect pacing, and the gradual revelation of complex truths is something to behold. Finally - to discover that this masterpiece is her first book is utterly mind blowing.
Think the darkeness, heartbreak and cruelty of Cyteen leavened with moments of Becky Chambersesque warmth, and you have the perfect cocktail. Can’t recommend highly enough!
