Publisher Description
A new blockbuster science fiction adventure from world-wide phenomenon and #1 New York Times bestseller Christopher Paolini, set in the world of New York Times and USA Today bestseller To Sleep in a Sea of Stars.
Instant New York Times bestseller
July 25th, 2234: The crew of the Adamura discovers the anomaly.
On the seemingly uninhabited planet Talos VII: a circular pit, 50 kilometers wide.
Its curve not of nature, but design.
Now, a small team must land and journey on foot across the surface to learn who built the hole and why.
But they all carry the burdens of lives carved out on disparate colonies in the cruel cold of space.
For some the mission is the dream of the lifetime, for others a risk not worth taking, and for one it is a desperate attempt to find meaning in an uncaring universe.
Each step they take toward the mysterious abyss is more punishing than the last.
And the ghosts of their past follow.

Customer Reviews
This is a slow read.
I can tell (or hope?) this book is to be a precursor of the fun to come in the next, but the book itself felt, to me, super slow. The entire book centers around one mission, and has a very subdued non-climax as compared to the first book. Basically, this book feels like the first book to an entirely different series loosely set in the same universe. 4 stars because the writing is engaging and I loved getting more of the universe I fell in love with in the first book, but I’m sad it wasn’t faster paced. I’m hoping the next book is a double dose of Acuwake!
Not my cup of tea
A depressing psychological journey leaving so many questions.
At least I finished it!
This book took me a while to read but I did manage to finish it at least. It promises a lot but fails to answer a lot of questions. The ending is not satisfying at all. At the end the main character does not really learn that much about the hole that is being investigating or the ‘turtles’ that keep showing up. I did like the main character a bunch and I liked the dialogue between the main characters. Still, this could have been so much better. It’s like it ends in mid story.
Incomplete.
