Reader reviews for Dark Matter
Review summary
Readers largely found Dark Matter a breathless, fast-moving sci?fi thriller with an accessible multiverse hook and a strong family/identity theme. Many praised its tension and readability—often finished in a sitting—and its cinematic, staccato prose, though some felt it read like a screenplay. Opinions split on originality: seasoned genre fans called it predictable or derivative, while others reported genuine surprises. The science was seen as digestible but shallow by some. Character work—especially for the women—was frequently deemed thin, with Amanda and Daniela underwritten. The ending divided readers, ranging from satisfying to too neat or rushed. Overall, a highly entertaining, beginner-friendly sci?fi ride despite limited depth.
