Synopsis

Sylvain Neuvel's Until the Last of Me is a darkly satirical first contact thriller, as seen through the eyes of the women who make progress possible and the men who are determined to stop them.

Always run, never fight.
Preserve the knowledge.
Survive at all cost.
Take them to the stars.

Over 100 identical generations, Mia’s family has shaped earth history to push humanity to the stars, making brutal, wrenching choices and sacrificing countless lives.

After nudging the human race through the dawn of rocket technology, Mia finds herself about to help launch the first people into space. She can't take them to the stars, not quite yet, but she's getting them ever closer...

But a terrible adversary is upon her, threatening the future of two species...

About Sylvain Neuvel

Sylvain Neuvel has taught linguistics in India and worked as a software engineer in Montreal. He is also a certified translator, though he wishes he were an astronaut. His girlfriend would have him believe that he has too many toys, so he writes about aliens and giant robots as a blatant excuse to build action figures (for his son, of course). His debut, Sleeping Giants, was described by NPR as “one of the most promising series kickoffs in recent memory.”

I received an advanced copy of this novel via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I was so excited to read this follow up to "A History of What Comes Next" and I was far from disappointed. This was a wonderful, enjoyable book, and I devoured it. This one is based on the later years of the spa......more

Goodreads review by Simon on February 17, 2025

"I ignored the smaller ones - they might have moved over time - I only looked at the balls big enough to stand the test of time." I really enjoyed this, but I will admit that it isn’t as good as the first one, and that’s mainly down to the fact that although we move further forward in time, to the 7......more
