![]() ![]() The coupling of horror and space can definitely create something vast and incredible, and that infinite dark certainly has the ability to make me feel particularly uneasy. There were twists that got my attention, a visual scope that prompted striking imagery, and characters that were forced to deal with an impossible task. Once the plot got into the flow of things however, that’s when I found excitement and thrills that didn’t disappoint. It took me a little while to get fully into it, as even with promising the intricacies of a first contact scenario, the actual meat of the story followed a build-up that consisted of the gathering and debriefing of the crew, as well as various interviews relating to the situation it didn’t lend as much anticipation as I would’ve liked. I’ve never denied that science fiction typically intimidates me, but being somewhat familiar with Wellington from the past – I adored his two-book werewolf series almost ten years ago – coupled with a few stellar reviews from those I follow, I decided to try the audio version of The Last Astronaut. ![]()
