AWESOME!

What would happen if earth finally runs out of resources? Apparently, we run to Mars or the moon. Obviously, not everyone likes this choice and there are rebel groups trying to reveal the truth about moving out of Earth... and that's only the beginning of the book. There were lots of twists I never saw coming and the end is... such a cliffhanger.

The writing style is also a good part of why I loved this book. There are multiple POV and, somehow, it felt like all of them were written by a different person. I just loved it.

An interesting if slow moving sci-fi adventure that will leave you guessing and surprised at the end, it did get a little Planet of of the Apes at the end.
