### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Extremely original and readable
  

*by B***H on Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2019*

Extremely enjoyable read. The level of detail gave it a sense of realism and somehow helped the pacing of the novel too (I can't attest to the accuracy of the scientific detail, but it seemed convincing to me as a lay reader). The descriptions of the voyage and geographical characteristics of the moon were vivid and really allowed the reader to imagine many of the physical and psychological sensations that might arise if one were actually there. The form of alien intelligence encountered was unique and very creative.Finally, I saw some reviews had criticized the lack of character development. I couldn't disagree more. I found their behavior and motivations quite believable for the most part; far more compelling and readable than attempts undertaken by other sci-fi authors at creating a human dimension which often fail and come across as incredibly long-winded.Great book. I don't understand why this book is not better known - it is of far higher quality than many sci-fi books which are published.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A solid read with a dip in pace in the middle
  

*by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2019*

Let me preamble this review by saying that I already bought the second book in the series, so I did enjoy it.The characters are reasonably well-developed though a bit predictable, and the hard-science angle is well done.  The writing is solid and there are very few typos.  (spoiler alert) The general theme of exploring for alien life in the solar system is obviously not unique, but it is well done and the perspective on the alien life they find once they arrive at Enceladus is also carefully crafted and believable.The one thing that prevented me from giving it 5 stars is that that while the book starts at a strong pace that quickly gets you into the story and the characters and also ends in a similar fashion (first and last thirds), the middle third of the book (mostly the trip to Enceladus) moves at a much slower pace, and at times I nearly skipped pages.  This is somewhat expected as in spite of one attempt at spicing things up, one that is disclosed early on to the reader, it is hard to create a lot of action when confined to a closed environment (a spaceship) and what is essentially the repeated daily routine involved in such a trip.  As a result, the narrative is pretty much inward facing, introspecting on the character of the different protagonists, and after a while it gets a bit tedious.Nevertheless, this is overall an enjoyable read, and as mentioned above, I did get the second installment of the story.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Pretty good book. Sporadic believability.
  

*by R***. on Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2020*

This SciFi book is decent in plot and writing style. The primary character is a “Sheldon-esk”’type genius and quite likable. The other main characters aren’t fleshed out very well but seem real. The story itself is a departure from most and seems possible but has one glaring error that kept getting in the way of really enjoying the book. It tells the story of traveling to one of Saturn’s moons by spaceship to check out a possible life form. The surface of the planet has miles thick ice cover they must drill through.The author employs an interesting melting device to accomplish this. The energy to create the necessary heat is beamed down to the surface from the spaceship. So far so good. But then the error - as the drill ship bores into the ice the energy is provided through a fiber optic cable from the surface. Of course the cavity that is created as the ship moves down refreezes behind them. So how does the fiber optic cable continue to move through the ice?  There is no way it is strong enough as it would be completely locked in the ice along its whole length. So it would have to be heated along it 3 mile length to keep the ice in the tunnel melted. Doubtful this can be done. Simply too much surface area.Adding to the issue is once the drill ship gets through the ice it zooms around like a submarine dragging the fiber optic cable behind. So the fiber optic cable is 3 miles long through the ice and another several miles under the ice. Really?  I found this entire aspect of the story too implausible to believe which basically ruined the story for me. Otherwise pretty good
