This story pulls you in fast and doesn’t let go. It’s packed with tension, smart ideas, and characters you actually care about. The whole teleportation-meets-doomsday setup is wild, but it works. Every chapter feels urgent, and the mix of science, emotion, and survival keeps things grounded.
The Slide manages to explore big themes without getting too heavy. It asks what really matters when everything's falling apart. You’ll find yourself thinking about choices, regrets, and what you’d do if the clock was running out. It’s part sci-fi thriller, part human drama, and totally worth reading.

Super interesting novel, couldn't put it down!
Right on...I really dug this one. Ryan's got a great work here, and the end is just sad, sad, sad. No spoilers though, and do NOT skip ahead. There are a lot of ways you can "slide" in this story, and the ghosts are no exception. Look out! Dangers abound.
