Well then.

This is a space horror/claustrophobic/unreliable narrator/body horror/ psychoscifi.
We follow G rendell.. That's clever. Other than that, it may remind you in parts to the martian or hail mary, but weirder.

We are to believe that humanity found a structure, clearly alien made and decided to board it. And as it goes with space stories, well, it doesn't work out. But all the while we follow G rendell's perspective, and he's been wandering this thing for who knows how long, eating ‘stuff', drinking i actually don't know since he ran out of piss... So his state of mind is questionable. And the little bits we get are... Confusing. But they do hint at the end if you pay attention. Which i didn't

So in the end, this review is sort of like the book, kind of incoherent, but if you read the book you'll see it makes sense in the end hehe.
