He does it again! Man, do I love Cronin’s writing. This book follows Proctor, a “Ferryman” who begins to realize the things around him aren’t as they seem. 

Like his Passage series, this book was bonkers and completely changes what I think it’s about as it progresses. Like, plots come out of left field, but also, it makes total sense that that’s where the story would go. I love that his books are unpredictable, and yet grounded. Even though they’re these epic sci-fi stories, spanning significant amounts of time and complex interweaving plots, at their core, these are just stories about family and love. And I love love! It’s moving, and heartbreaking, and inspiring, and I just can’t get enough of his writing.
