Nutze seit über 2 Jahren auf der Instanz books.theunseen.city.. und die Probleme werden leider größer. Einmal ist sie von heute auf morgen ist nicht mehr erreichbar, und ein anderes Mal, also eigentlich immer, entweder gar nicht oder nur mit starken Verzögerungen zu erreichen.
Jetzt werde ich es mir hier gemütlich machen. Meine Buchliste ist importiert. Jetzt muss ich nur noch ein wenig aufräumen.
Meine Interessen liegen hauptsächlich in history-based Romane, SciFi, Crime & Thriller, ab und an auch mal Fantasy oder ein Sachbuch.
Meistens lese ich englisch-sprachige Bücher.

Fantastic story. Truly gripping and I need to watch the movie again. I find myself not remembering any major plots so I guess it'll feel like I've never seen it before.
As a non-native speaker with a full-time job it took me less than a regular book that size. Which means i really did read it in a pace very unusual for me.
Having read Andy's third book after The Martian I could see where he's coming from. He made the great science-stuff so much more tangible than in The Martian. Nonetheless, his skill to explain what's happening with all the analogies and metaphors is increcibly fascinating.
And off I go for Artemis. Truly curious.
After a few crime/thriller books I was looking forward to a lighter read. The book didn't disappoint. I loved the science behind the story and how the author's analogies and methapors.
This was a great read—I enjoyed it so much that I’ve already downloaded the second book in the series.
That said, I personally prefer crime or thriller stories where the detective methodically closes in on the culprit. I’m not a fan of sudden, out-of-nowhere solutions to a mystery, especially when there’s not a single clue pointing toward the resolution until the last chapter of a book. For me, that’s a bit frustrating, but it didn’t stop me from appreciating the story overall.
Nice story. I don’t like the arrogant attitude of Frey. But that’s probably because the social standards are so outlandish for me. I guess, the description is accurate but geesh what a pain at times.
Otherwise a lovely read with a very quick end.
