While I enjoyed this novella and connected to the main protagonist, it felt heavily influenced by Ridley Scott’s Alien. I love those movies, and was able to guess a lot of what was going to happen. That said, I came to love Jacklyn and Watson. The ending was also a bit more unique and left me with lots of questions craving more.
