About this listen
They Both Die at the End meets The Loneliest Girl in the Universe in this mind-bending sci-fi mystery and tender love story about two boys aboard a spaceship sent on a rescue mission, from two-time National Book Award finalist Eliot Schrefer. Stonewall Honor Award winner!
Two boys, alone in space. Sworn enemies sent on the same rescue mission.
Ambrose wakes up on the Coordinated Endeavor with no memory of a launch. There’s more that doesn’t add up: evidence indicates strangers have been on board, the ship’s operating system is voiced by his mother, and his handsome, brooding shipmate has barricaded himself away. But nothing will stop Ambrose from making his mission succeed—not when he’s rescuing his own sister.
In order to survive the ship’s secrets, Ambrose and Kodiak will need to work together and learn to trust each other . . . especially once they discover what they are truly up against. Love might be the only way to survive.

Science fiction/ horror.
Science fiction/ horror, I would also put warnings here for suicide and self-harm. it was certainly not what I expected from a young-adult sci-fi audiobook.

Amazing, finished it in a day
This book was a roller coaster of emotions and I loved every minute of it. I haven’t felt this many emotions from a book in a long time and I highly recommend you read it.

Blends Thrills and Twists in a Cosmic Mystery
Schrefer's storytelling is gripping, balancing tense moments with deep dives into the characters' evolving relationship. With its brisk pacing and unexpected twists, "The Darkness Outside Us" kept me hooked until the final pages.

Not what I was expecting
Fair warning, this book is fantastic. The plot and progression was a refreshing change to other space themed books. If you want a MM book with a Fantastic plot that stays clear of the 'steamy sessions' that authors seem to jam into most MM themed books then this is the book for you.
