Dark Matter was a trash drama based story with science fiction elements. The typical real-life trope of an author who is most definitely not a genius, trying to write about a genius physicist protagonist, who unfortunately doesn&#8217;t instantly recognise a bleedingly obvious main plot point, that anyone who has read a science fiction book would pick up immediately. The physics discovery has so many implications &#8230; but the protagonist doesn&#8217;t grasp this and gets it wrong, but that&#8217;s OK, because it&#8217;s the same deal with the author, resulting in a story that stays horribly shallow, and drama-focused.<\/p>\n<p>Not to be confused with with the existing <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dark_Matter_(2015_TV_series)\">Dark Matter TV series (2015-17)<\/a> that was a really good science fiction show.<\/p>\n<p>However, of the 56,000 ratings on goodreads, 80% rate the book as 4 stars or higher (out of 5). So clearly tastes may vary. Mind you, there are nearly 1,000 1 star reviews (people writing reviews to discuss why the book is garbage, not just giving it a rating of 1 &#8211; close to 5,000 of those)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: The First Look At Apple TV&#8217;s New Sci-Fi TV Show Is A Great Sign For The Adaptation.
