Andy Weir is absolutely brilliant. This book had me hooked from start to finish. The way he makes the science so understandable while keeping the stakes sky-high is mind-blowing. Grace and Rocky’s mission is monumental, and you feel every bit of it—the urgency, the ingenuity, and the heart. Rocky is one of the be most unique characters I’ve ever come across, and the dynamic between him and Grace is pure gold. It’s clever, emotional, and so satisfying. Weir’s storytelling is next level. Highly recommend!

A nice fun return to Alegaecia that probably would hit harder if I hadn’t just read Eragon-Inheritance just before. Short stories are always interesting though

The Jedi's views on love and attachment continue to perplex me. I appreciate the parallels drawn between Elzar and Anakin but why wasn't Elzar's experience made aware to later Jedi such as Anakin? You would think that the Jedi would have clarified things on this subject. It makes Yoda look like he has completely flipped his stance by the time of the Prequels.
I also felt Porter's story in this book isn't very indicative of his character. As wise and old as he is, he would be the last person to be too focused on revenge to help with bigger problems in the galaxy.
It was nonetheless cool to see elements from earlier phases come together in this book and the stage is set for a very intense, exciting ending. The book suffers from being a penultimate entry in the story, making the stakes in this particular novel feel smaller as you know they are saving the crazy stuff for the next novel.

Eldest takes what was great in Eragon and builds upon it. It was nice seeing what Roran was up to and to follow his POV for a decent amount
