This is an excellent guide to what to look out for in the night sky in 2023. It is designed so that it can be used anywhere in the world, and would make a lovely gift for anyone with an interest. I have an Earc and the constellation maps are unusable, but will probably get a print copy for next year.
*Many thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for a review copy in exchange for an honest opinion.*
An excellent book if you are fascinated by the night sky and want to learn something more. The maps works in paper but there's enough data to keep you reading.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
Every year I see this book come up on Netgalley and every year I request this and then go and find myself a physical version, as these impressive but compact books give us another guide to the stars for the year coming that always impresses me.
I appreciate everything they put into this book, the diagrams, the important dates, the incredible knowledge of the night skies they have to really make an interesting and informative book that really never stops giving you everything you need to know about the stars. Going by month, this book gives us, sunrises and sunsets in major cities, moon phases and what you need to be looking out for.
I appreciate the language they use to explain everything and I appreciate how they highlight memorable moments of the planetary calendar and combine this with facts and history about space. I just really appreciate these books when they come out and look forward to adding this purple copy to my collection so far!
Thanks again for the ARC Netgalley and Collins Astronomy!
A really interesting book but the kindle copy is largely unusable as you cannot see the constellation maps or images properly. A physical copy would be great though.
Very good reference material. Concise, straight-to-the-point, and informative. Would definitely be picking up in store a physical copy.
