"For Jessica Mathers, teleportation and planetary colonization in deep space aren't just hypotheticals--they're real. They're also the very real reason her scientist parents left her behind six years ago. Now she is about to be reunited with them, forced to leave behind everyone she knows and loves, to join their research assignment on Carver 1061c, a desolate, post-extinction planet almost 14 lightyears from Earth. Teleportation is safe and routine in the year 2198, but something seems to have gone very, very wrong. Jessica wakes up in an empty, and utterly destroyed, landing unit from the DS Theseus, the ship where she was supposed to rendezvous with her parents. But Jessica isn't on the Theseus orbiting Carver 1061c. The lander seems to have crashed on the planet's surface. Its corridors are empty and covered in bloody handprints; the machines are silent and dark. And outside, in the alien dirt, are the carefully, and recently, marked graves of strangers. Questions of self-determination and survival collide in this expertly crafted science fiction novel from Edgar Award-winning author Matthew J. Kirby. Kirby builds spine-tingling tension page-by-page in this imaginative and haunting story that spans both space and time" --]cGoodreads.

Seventeen-year-old Jessica is about to be teleported to a post-extinction planet in deep space to be reunited with her scientist parents that she hasn't seen in six years as they embark on their latest research project. Something goes terribly wrong and Jessica wakes up alone in a lander that is destroyed from a crash, with bloody handprints everywhere. What happened? Why are there graves outside?
STAR SPLITTER was a gripping YA science fiction thriller. I loved the dual timeline. All of the characters were fantastic. The title comes from Robert Frost's poem 'The Star-Splitter,' a portion of which is included at the beginning of the book. References to the poem are weaved throughout the book and add depth to many of the thought-provoking questions that arise while reading. I guessed some of the major twists but still enjoyed the book very much as it's well written. This is a book that I'm glad I didn't read many reviews prior to starting as knowing less going into it is probably best.
STAR SPLITTER was an unputdownable and very thought-provoking YA science fiction thriller that I'd definitely recommend. This is the first book I've read by this author. I'd be interested in checking out his other works.
