Erin's Reviews > Gallowglass

I really enjoyed SJ Morden’s Frank Kitteridge books and Gallowglass has much of the same well-researched hard science, high stakes, do or die scenarios, and flawed but cheerable humans.

I really liked the beginning of this book; the attempts to escape Earth and settling in with the crew on the mining ship. But the second half of the novel didn’t grab me as much as the first did.

Still it was an enjoyable read, and I’d be happy to read any spacey sci-fi this author writes.

As an aside, I’m not sure what to make of this, but it appears that the astronaut image on the cover of this book is exactly the same as the one that appears on Andy Weir’s forthcoming novel Project Hail Mary...
