I got 50 pages in to ORBITAL and gave up. It's awful. Just loads of adjectives describing Earth and the Skies as seen from space. Luckily it is short - I normally give any novel 100 pages before binning it but most are 300 pages; this is half that. I'm now starting James (I loved Everett's The Trees in 2022 Booker shortlist).

ORBITAL-terrible title. Sounds like an energy firm.
