Record of a Spaceborn Few is the third novel in the Wayfarers universe, though the story itself is standalone. That story takes even more of a "slice-of-life" approach than the previous books in the series, as we follow the perspectives of a handful of humans in the Exodus Fleet going about their daily lives. It's a peaceful novel, focused on character study rather than a traditional plot. I enjoyed learning about the culture of the Fleet, and seeing the challenges it faced as an enduring community. Despite the science-fictional setting, I feel like each of the characters represented relatable anxieties from different stages of human life. It's an unusual novel, but one that I'm glad to have read. I'll keep an eye out for the next Wayfarers book!
