Reader voices
The most-liked reviews on Hardcover (credited to their authors).
“Good book if you want a story from the Fractalverse, but nothing new is given about the universe itself. This is a much smaller story than what To Sleep offers. It drags on a bit too long, but it does payoff.”
“I didn't love this book, which is unfortunate because To Sleep In a Sea of Stars was brilliant. I've really liked all of his books. To be fair I didn't hate it either. I just got tired of Alex whining all the time. I hope…”
