My least favorite in the Wayfarers series so far. While there was nothing inherently wrong with this book, it was incredibly slow and had no real plot. I didn’t find myself interested in any of the five protagonists’ stories, or invested in anything. My favorite characters were those in supporting roles, including a snarky gay grandma, a sex worker, a gelatinous alien and a five-year-old. I kept hoping for something to happen to endear me to the protagonists or suck me into the story—or to see the crew from the first book, given the timeline—but unfortunately, none of those things happened.
