Slow Time Between the Stars

This was a very enjoyable novella? Two hours -ish for the audio book.

Characters: Really only one. A bit know-it-all and snarky (no surprise that such a character is in a Scalzi novel).
Setting: Inside the “brain” of the one character or space.
Language: Very straightforward and easily understood.
Story: What happens when a mission to new habitable planets for humans goes rogue. Why did it go rogue. What is done instead. Very speculative and thoughtful, it is one possibility and I liked it.
