Why to Read: | A fun take on a classic sci-fi idea, this pilot is well-constructed and incredibly satisfying to read. The narrative is fun and engaging, and it’s easy to imagine it as a series. The protagonist’s backstory is expertly crafted to create believable stakes, a clear goal, and strong desires and motivations for him, making it beyond easy to relate to him and his strange dystopian journey. However, the real star of the show is the inventive setting, which is simply teeming with possibilities. Vibrant writing and clear visuals immerse us in this new and exciting world alongside the protagonist and promise to take us on a thrilling, sweeping rollercoaster ride. |
