Description:

When two travelers decide to follow her, a reluctant drifter (Una) must stop them from turning motion into settlement before the system in the east notices the cluster and chooses who survives.

Reader's Review:

A well-paced road piece that knows exactly how to stage a walk. The WEST sign, the two walkers matching Una's pace without closing, the copper-wire girl fidgeting her wire, the fire scene where the Hive almost gets named, and the fork where the pressure behind Una's eyes makes her teeth ache, but the older woman's pivot ("We are leaving because we know they will show up anyway… maybe we choose which ones kill us") lands harder emotionally than the scene has earned, Una never fully lands on what she wants from going west beyond "it's open," and the ending goes thin the moment the other two split north and fade out.

Author Details:

STÉPHANE C. ROY

Stéphane Roy is a lifelong reader and writer with a deep love for science fiction, apocalyptic worlds, and tightly constructed mysteries. This is his first novel. He lives in the Yukon with his dog and his aquarium, where long winters, silence, and wide, sometimes glowing, skies leave plenty of room for imagining the end of the world, and what might come after it. He is also waiting, with cautious optimism, for the aliens to finally reveal themselves and straighten us all out.
