Abyss by Nicholas BingeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
A fun, eerie lil sci-fi novella with a solid message.
I loved this and was hooked from the beginning. A dude living a dead-end life gets a job that goes from a little bit odd to full on psychotic? Yes please.
This builds the suspense brilliantly in the shorter timeframe of a novella, and works in plenty of action to keep the pace flowing. It's got some deeper messaging that I also appreciated, but it's really just a fantastically creepy story that sucks you in.
It was written well, so that even with strange things happening you don't ever feel things are unrealistic. It's got a great balance.
I really enjoyed it, to the point that I'd have happily read something longer. As it stands, it's piqued my curiosity of this author so I'll be looking out for further releases.
With thanks to NetGalley for an ARC
