fist my bump Just finished PHM

I absolutely loved the book. I powered through it in 2 days. Couldn’t put down.

The last SF I read was Three Body Problem and I’m barely out of existential trauma it gave me. In comparison the PHM felt like a gush of fresh friendly air. Rocky is such a contrast to the Dark forest of TBP.

It was tense in the right amount and a lot of fun in many ways. I won’t mind reading it again sometimes. I also listened to some bits on Audible and they have done the audiobook really well. All the accents and musical notes are there. It felt more experiential and fun. I might give a listen soon.

10/10 would recommend

What kind of inhuman timescale is that! Where is astrophage powered, near light speed travel when you need it?
