I also just finished this after almost a year on my TBR list.
I thought it was a chore to get through at times. If I never read another description of a serac or ice pack again it’ll be too soon.
But overall it was a good experience. It’s well researched and Simmons does a great job building the atmosphere. The setting and situation were scarier than the actual monster.
I’m going to try carrion comfort next. I hope the pace is a bit faster.
