There's quite a selection of books I've enjoyed over the years, but few I can relate to on a personal level, being autistic. This time, I can relate. When a man's wife gets back from Africa with a new and deadly disease, only he can figure out how to help her, but he will have obstacles in his way besides environmental elements that have plagued him all his life. Sections deal with tough questions of if authority overreaches, how biomechanics works, toying with near future technology, and throws you in to a story with impossible stakes with enough people that you want to root for, but know it will be impossible to root for all of them to win. It was both incredibly clever to see how it worked and heartbreaking at the same time. Not often a story pulls this many layers together effectively, but this one does.
Rating: 4.75/5
