I loved Symbiote, and after that ending which left the door wide open for the second book I was so excited to get reading Sentient. I’m very glad to say that it did not disappoint, Nayak took the pace he had from the first book and just kept going. This time the stakes were even higher as the plague-carriers find their way to a larger base that has actual contact with the wider world. Nayak has actual real life experience with the setting and that really shines through as he makes McMurdo Station so real and work perfectly as a setting for Sentient.
