I look forward to every S.A. Barnes book. It‘s how I discovered sci-fi space horror and I‘m all in.
They are just so much fun. I should have tried them sooner as I‘m a big space monster movie fan.
This was a lot of fun; quite the ride. Perfect? No. But FUN. If anyone has any recs on books like this, please let me know below.
For those who have read this, I have a question in the comments.

MaleficentBookDragon What was with the damn button?!?! Was it just to wear her down mentally and physically? I also wanted more of Karl. He died too fast. 3w
candc320 I thought the same thing about the button! I think it was just a way to get people to the ship to do the “job” and then they have to walk around and be vulnerable for the monster. Also, I assumed Karl would actually be an AI or just not on the ship, so I was a little disappointed he was just working for Zane. 3w
MaleficentBookDragon @candc320 I was thinking Karl was going to be some Frankenstein type doctor using the bodies in the tanks to make a monster or something. I wanted more of him and from him. I also really thought Niina was going to get away somehow and show up at the end. She would be an amazing villain in a second book. The end seemed rushed when we finally got there. I still loved this one though. 3w

candc320 I agree completely! 3w
Kitta I was just thinking about your book blanket haha 3w
RosePressedPages I definitely agree! I wish the suspense and dread had been built up a little more too. Once the big reveal happened, there wasn‘t very much time spent really fleshing it out. Sometimes I feel like Barnes shies away from committing to the horror she creates but I did think this one was very fun. Some space horrors I‘ve found so far are Paradise-1, Scourge Between Stars, Salvation Day, Contagion, We Have Always Been Here, and Ship of Fools. (edited) 3w
MaleficentBookDragon @RosePressedPages Thank you! I'm going to check those out. 3w
