The Void Beyond (The Cluster Saga, #2)


After the collapse of the Coalition, the Inner Cluster is besieged.
The second of three books, and the author has doubled down on the bad stuff from the first book and just given up on all the cool stuff. Great concepts from the previous entry were just straight up abandoned in favor of building a story about shitty religions in the future doing the same shitty things they’re doing now.
pretty happy I got these for free, but sad that such a great first book was followed up with this nonsense. I have the third one, but it might take me a while to get to it.

Uncharted


I did not expect to like this as well as I did, there was a struggle at the start for me to separate Tom Holland from his Spider-man role, as in those movie he’s playing a highschooler, and here he’s a 20 something orphan on an epic adventure of tending bar and pick pocketing until he’s approached by Mark Wahlberg’s character “Sully”. Mind that I’ve only played the first Uncharted game, but this was close enough to what I remember that I was happy with what we got, which is a pretty well done mystery adventure story that has all the hallmarks of the best movies out there. I’m not necessarily saying this is on the same level as the original Tomb Raider or Indiana Jones, but it’s damn close.
