Terraformung (Ell Donsaii, #15)

The science behind the terraforming process felt very plausible and well-researched. I'm curious whether the author based it on real science or created it entirely from imagination.

The characters' choices often felt driven by genuine human concerns, even in extreme situations. Did others find themselves relating to their struggles and hopes?

The book emphasizes survival in an alien environment, but I wonder what themes or conflicts would shift if the story took place here on Earth.
