Helpful Score: 1

I didn't know what to expect with this novel. The characters are much like the Pilgrims, traveling off to colonize a planet 46 light years away and start a new life. However, they are more prepared and technologically advance than the Pilgrims. That doesn't mean, however, that doesn't mean it's easy. I really enjoyed how each chapter is written from a different perspective--different characters of different ages. For example, one chapter begins with a colonist's journal entry and then the author elaborates; while another chapter is told by one of the teenagers. I hought this novel had a good mix of science (whether real or imagined) to make it believeable.
