“Let’s start with the end of the world, why don’t we?”

Ambitious and harrowing with a diverse cast of characters, I can see how this won the Hugo Award as it’s incredibly clever. 

The narrator did a fantastic job & I was fully immersed in the story throughout. Looking forward to the next instalment!
