β§ Synopsis β§
Earth is dying. Humanityβs last hope lies in Sphaera, a distant world rumoured to be its salvation. But mere weeks after landing, the ARC crew goes silent, leaving behind only questions.
With time slipping away, a final mission is launched. The Echo crew is sent to finish what ARC could not: assess the planetβs viability and report back before itβs too late. But something is waiting for them when they make landfall, something twisted, ravenous and relentless. Whatever befell the ARC still lingers, and itβs hungry for more.
Ava, a driven scientist aboard the Echo, is determined to uncover the truth. But as tensions rise and a lethal virus spreads, sheβs forced to navigate impossible choicesβbetween duty and survival, between grief and a growing undeniable pull toward a hardened soldierβwhile struggling to move on from what she left behind.
β§ Thoughts β§
Omg what a book! As someone who loves a good zombie story and also has a love for medical-related things (and a bit of spicy romance), this book was absolutely amazing!
The only thing was that I wish there was more, it felt like this was just the beginning of something even though Iβm pretty sure itβs a standalone.
Reading this gave me a bit of hope that there are more than likely people out there just like these characters that will fight to improve not just their own lives but everyone elseβs until they can fight no longer, which felt refreshing in the state of the world weβre currently in where people donβt really help each other or think outside of themselves and their circle of friends and family.
Plus, thereβs nothing like finding love when the worldβs ending! π
(Please ignore my chipped af nail and the quality of the photos, I really wanted to post about this book before I forget all the details but I havenβt had the time or energy to take nicer photos lmao)
