An excellent sci-fi adventure which touches on topical political and environmental issues.
Two female astronauts are sent on the trip of a lifetime - literally. They're on a one-way ticket to make contact with the unknown. Their ship only has the capacity for the one trip.
Their instructions are simple - make contact with whatever has been emitting the strange messages that have been picked up on earth and ask them for help. With their food, water and oxygen supplies rapidly diminishing the pressure is on to quickly complete the mission. Problem is, the planet is deserted. Or is it?
Struggling to survive they pick up distressing news from home. They might be the last surviving humans.
I can't say much more without giving the plot away.
Characters are likeable and imaginative. Plenty of intrigue and suspense. Although a sci-fi book, Polky is good at making the complicated easy to understand, so the read is fully accessible to general readers.
Recommend to readers who enjoy sci-fi and general adventure stories.
