Antimatter Blues by Edward Ashton

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

A great follow-up to the first book in the series, Mickey 7.

Mickey 7 (#1 in the series) was one of my favourite books from 2022, so when I saw there would be a second, Antimatter Blues, I almost fell of my chair with excitement. My excitement was not misplaced with this fast-paced adventure-style, second installment. I recommend reading (or re-reading) Mickey 7 because this book picks right back up with all our favourite characters including our endlessly sarcastic lead, Mickey 7, and his best friends, two years after the last book ended.

If you liked the first book, then you'll love the ride this time around - a must read. If you listened to the first book on audio, you'll be thrilled to know John Pirhalla is narrating again. If you haven't listened to the audiobook - please do - because it's AMAZING.

This book is best read while on an alien planet, ideally while taking a break from a full day of hiking towards certain doom with your best friends.
