Planet Zero

The world-building in this book feels so vivid and immersive. I'm curious whether the author created the planet from scratch or drew inspiration from real-world environments.

The chemistry between the characters was intense, but I appreciated how their mistrust added depth. Was that balance hard to strike during writing?

There were moments of high tension and tender intimacy, often in the same chapter. I wonder if that pacing was a conscious choice to keep readers engaged.
