    Yeah. It’s crazy. But he really set up their story in a way that made me root for and feel for them. Cast unwillingly into this epic drama of species survival, it’s quite interesting. Also the story of the Gilgamesh was incredible. If you haven’t read the second book I really recommend it, I’m almost finished with it now and it’s definitely a page turner.

    Everything is linked in a way that really makes sense and there are some really cool twists that builds upon the previous book as I mentioned.

    If you have any recommendations of similar books or authors I’d really like to know!

      I have the audiobook of the second one, can’t wait to start it.

      As for similar titles I never come accross anything like this. The only one which comes to mind is “We Are Legion (We Are Bob)” by Dennis E. Taylor. Its about an IT guy, Bob, whos mind gets uploaded to a computer and a century later the company puts him in charge of a self-sufficient space probe. Bob becomes a space traveller, gathers resources and creates more instances of himself. He finds new worlds, helps civilizations raise and makes enemies along the way while more and more Bobs joins the story through space and time. Its really lighthearted and less serious but I enjoyed it a lot. It has the similar " story throughout the centuries" trope.
