Gosh, I am so thankful to Macmillan Audio, Yume Kitasei, and NetGalley for granting me access to The Deep Sky before this sci-fi thriller is set to publish on July 18, 2023. We love a good science fiction horror read and this one did just that for me.

This book was fabulous!
I loved the characters, and the writing was fantastic. This was a new spin on the colony ship story. I don't think I have ever read a book in which the entire crew of the ship is able to carry children, and the future of the species is dependent on artificial insemination. It was a magnificent conceit for a story, and I loved it. I also loved the complications that were created by the fact that these women have known each other since they were 12, and they have all sorts of baggage that comes with having been in competition with each other during those formative years. I also loved the mystery aspect of this story: Asuka's mission to find out who sabotaged the ship was fascinating. Really no complaints about this book. Loved it.

This is a little hard for me to review without including any spoilers, so I am keeping it simple. The ending was predictable for me (especially after the early false climax), but the journey was interesting and written in a way that kept me invest nonetheless. Thanks to Flatiron and NetGalley for the ARC

The stories flowed well and the characters were well developed. I recommend this book and look forward to more from this author.

As predicted, humans have destroyed the planet. A vastly wealthy woman has funded deep space exploration for a new home, and she’s chosen to bring only women on the mission. Asuka is one of those women and spends a lot of time questioning her ability and her talents. When an explosion rocks the ship, the mission, and the future of humanity is at stake. I really enjoyed this book, having only females aboard was a genius call, and made perfect sense in both literature and a possible real-life mission. A thrilling read
