Shows More of the Human Side

4 out of 5 stars

This was one of those books where I blinked and it was over. I don’t say that in a bad way, just a way where one minute I was listening and the next I was not. A book that has the ability to set me into a trance like that has to be pretty good.

Being the third book in the series – I’m well versed in each character and the ideas that are going around. This book chose to focus more on the human aspect of each person (and of the humans in general). That means there was much less AI and a lot more human interaction. The crew find themselves trapped in a cave system where all other life forms are dead… or are they?

I found this book to be entertaining in a different way than the other books in the series. It flew by as I mentioned above and I thought the ending (trying not to spoil anything) wasn’t what I was expecting. I’m always shocked when a book (or a series in this case) can surprise me like that.

Overall, I thought Evolution was a good book filled with some different aspects than the first two. Cohen’s narration adds to the depth that Kilby writes and turns a good book into a great one.
