Description
After being abandoned at the age of two and a half, Holly Hillman was raised without whimsy or fantasy. She was taught that there were no such things as Santa Claus, fairies, elves or any other accepted fantasies that help a child deal with the harder realities of life. Now in her forties, she is the CEO of a Fortune 400 company. She rose to the top through hard work, but also by living without distractions or social attachments. Despite her rigidly ingrained dedication, Holly was content with her life, having never lived by any other tenet. Everything was perfect until she was required to give her DNA as part of a health check leading up her company’s merger with an Asian conglomerate.
The results of her test unlocked the secret of her unique ancestry, leading to her having to confront a fantastical truth that would forever change her views on life and reality itself.

I love reading Chris Coppel's novels. Each new book is completely different and yet wholly the same. I know I am being oxymoronic but what I mean is that his plots are always original and innovative but his style remains the same throughout, lucid and engaging.
This is a story full of magic and enchantment but there is also a much deeper layer which forces one to think about the corruption in the world of big business and a drive for profit against total disregard for the human suffering of the work force.
The character arcs are written with razor-sharp precision and a happy ending is a real bonus in a world riddled with bad news.

After working more than 25 years in logistics, I couldn't resist this when I noticed it on NetGalley.
Honestly I hadn't fully read the description, but I loved this story. This is categorized as General Fiction (Adult) / Sci Fi & Fantasy; which is not my typical read.
I loved it! A wonderfully creative logistical Christmas story. Not terribly long, (listened with the help of Siri and text to voice) in less than a day.
Not sure how to describe it without giving away the story. Just read it.
Thank you to NetGalley, Chris Coppel the author and Matador the publisher for the opportunity to provide the advance read copy of Logistics: A Christmas Story in exchange for an honest review. Publication date is 28 Jan 2022. Probably my biggest complaint is ... this should have been released in time for Christmas!
