The story, then, has more than a hint of The Phantom of the Opera about it - both involve masked figures who live in the shadowy underworld, both involve melodrama and a star-crossed love story - with Hugo Weaving never once showing his face through the entire runtime, but still - impressively - able to convey his emotions through his acting.

Seer ( Saving Setora 4)
By Raven Dark and Petra J. Knox
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It was meant to be a simple trip to take care of business. But by the time we get home, none of us will ever be the same.
Honestly this series really frustrates the hell out of me. Everything screams to not like it that I should hate reading about women being enslaved to men in a dystopian future but I can’t help but be totally hooked! And this ending I felt like screaming for Setora!!! I’ve had that many moments that I’ve eye rolled to these men I’m shocked my eyes arnt backwards.

Lots of knowing nods and winks in this one - most egregiously being Marty McFly's chosen name of 'Clint Eastwood' when he meets his ancestors - with the DeLorean time machine again incapacitated in the past, necessitating an ingenious solution (here, to get up the requisite 88 miles per hour).
Probably could have done without the 'flying train' coda at the very end, though!
Thankfully, all three are stand-alone.
This one is set in the relatively near future and on the moon, where Artemis is the first - and, currently, only - city there, and where life can be rough.
Which is why the protagonist Jasmine "Jazz" Bashara turns to smuggling alongside her 'proper' job as a porter. And, inevitably, finds herself involved in a conspiracy for control of the city when things go sideways.
Personally, I found this to be a bit weaker than either The Martian or Project Hail Mary but, well, tastes may differ!
