This one took me a bit longer to read than Artemis because I had to keep pausing and walking away to let the science sink into my brain. What an absolutely phenomenal story! Fascinating science and interesting plot and the ending! What an ending 🥲

The Last Gifts of the Universe | Rory August

The Last Gifts of the Universe, by Riley August (2024)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Premise: Two young humans and their intrepid cat Pumpkin search the universe for messages from long-extinct alien species, but are up against an evil corporation who wants to keep any discoveries behind their paywalls.

Review: This was a bit rough around the edges; even at ~200 pages it felt repetitive and plodding in places, and there are plot points that didn‘t feel ‘right‘. ⬇️

Mattsbookaday But wthere‘s a big heart here. It stares down despair and cynicism and resists them with all the power two humans and a cat can muster, and offers some beautifully-written and genuine reflections on grief and loss. So, in the end I enjoyed this quite a bit, but if you need your plots to cohere perfectly, you might want to give it a pass. 2d
