I really liked most of this book except for some obvious errors like wtf would a space agency not fully, deeply, intrinsically vet each and every candidate. Soooo many unanswered questions though. What I thought was the point of the story (the cult) was not. So, at the end, I really hoped to find out more about the cult and the planet and the ties to “destiny” that the author brought up so often. Is there going to be a second book??? It seems too much to leave to the readers’ imaginations.
