It will take the team twenty-three years to reach Terra-Two. Twenty-three years locked in close quarters. Twenty-three years with no one to rely on but each other. Twenty-three years with no rescue possible, should something go wrong.
And something always goes wrong
The main thing to understand about this book about a 23-year journey to another solar system is that it's NOT, in fact, a book about a 23-year journey to another solar system. It's about the psychological journey required to join and actually take the first step to begin that journey and the mental adjustments required once you've launched this mission you've spent your entire life preparing for and imagination becomes reality.
And that's an interesting book, but it's a slightly different kind of book than the one you'd expect from the blurb, I think. I liked it, but I'd like that other book better.
