adventurous funny medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

Although I found this slightly less engaging than Mickey7, this is a satisfying conclusion to the series.
It lags in the middle somewhat, when we are centring on a larger cast of characters, the majority of whom are not particularly well developed. The new creatures we are introduced to also could have been explored in more depth.
However, as with its predecessor, Antimatter Blues is an enjoyable read, at its strongest when focussing on Mickey himself and the quandries presented by being an Expendable.
Thanks to St. Martin's Press and Edelweiss for the ARC.
