Atmosphere We Don’t Orbit but Fall the Same is a struggle for survival between two alien species that hinges on an unlikely collaboration. *** Kora Green learned to talk in her sleep. In fact, everything she has ever been taught occurred while sleeping. She has lived so robustly while unconscious that she cannot ever remember being awake. Her community tells her that she has everything she needs, but then she feels sunlight on her skin and remembers, for the first time, the sensation of cool water between her toes. Kora soon learns that it is forbidden to discuss what happens in the wake-state. But when a spacecraft from another solar system arrives, the heretic Kora may hold the key to her species’ survival. *** Dr. Phlox Swenno was raised in the tree tops, and his people believe that emotions are a sign of weakness. His primate-like species trusts violence and science, but the doctor is trying to outrun an unspoken shame, and he is ill-equipped for life aboard a deep-space freighter. The planet they begin to orbit incubates new diseases and unforeseen dangers, and the doctor may be the only one who can read the clues. *** Atmosphere, at its deepest level, becomes an allegory regarding the importance of memory, dreams, and forgiveness.
Atmosphere We Don't Orbit but Fall the Same eBook Garth Bunse
I'm not an avid sci-fi reader, but the book cover intrigued my curiosity. The story was okay, but I had to think too much. You need a very imaginative mind to read this book. I'm not good at imagining book characters and scenery unless I'm given a familiar context. I also didn't understand the significance between the poetry and the theme of the book. Eventually, everything comes together in the end, but it was a slow read for me. If you read a lot of sci-fi and have a creative mind, you might like it.Product details

Some of the symtoms were also psychological; voices, halucantions, delusions, & dreams beyond one’s imagiantion.
The crew were now on the planet Akkacian.

I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review, only an honest one.
A very awesome book cover, great font & writing style. A failry well written extraterrestrial sci-fi book. It wasn’t very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish, but never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great extraterrestrial sci-fi movie, animated cartoon, or mini TV series. I am not sure I got the whole story content. But ¾ way through you finally pulled it together. To be continued? That said I will still only rate it at 3/5 stars.
Thank you for the free Goodreads; Making Connections; Smashwords; Author; PDF book

What are we without our dreams? How do our dreams define us? Atmosphere We don’t Orbit but Fall all the Same, addresses these issues on a galactic scale. In this novel, there’s no humanity to be found, but humanity’s faults and struggles abound in alien form. Atmosphere is a Sociological Sci-Fi lover’s dream, pun perhaps intended. The world-building is rich, and the protagonist, Phlox Sweeno, is as brave as he is often confused by his own dreams. Again, dreams. Phlox’s species is not only scared of them, but they’re a social taboo derived from past enslavement by another species. A series of catastrophic events forces Phlox to face his dreams during space flight and everything old and new that comes with them. The complexity and weaving of worlds versus dreams versus the struggle to survive made for worthwhile reading, but the story isn’t without its faults.
The story dragged early and was often difficult to follow. Two worlds were being presented at once. Phlox Sweeno and his story was presented in a linear fashion while the other protagonist, Kora Green’s, tale read like a Greek tragedy, complete with a chorus. This proved distracting, and at times, frustrating. The verb tense often shifted between these scenes without discernible breaks and the story was further complicated by Phlox’s sudden present-tense dreams. The novel was also plagued with anachronisms that didn’t fit the world the author created. Word choices such as Braille, human error, toothpaste, and sitting ducks threw this reviewer out of the story, and each time it proved more difficult to return. I did return, however, and was rewarded with a well thought out and intense ending worth the wade to reach.
Exciting story with a very interesting premise. Lots of twists and turns. Really enjoyed it
I'm a sociology student and I like to read a good sci-fi every now and again. I came across this novel on my kindle "recommended" list, and after reading the summary I was immediately drawn to the relationship between social constructs like gender and the out-of-this-world setting.
Bunse is a skilled writer and builds suspense while providing enough thought, imagery, and development that allows the reader to feel like they are in the story with the characters. The plot can be interpreted on a few different levels of allegory, which is part of what makes this story so memorable and dynamic. The meaning one interprets depends on how they already think, what they are looking for, and the ways they can be directed. Bunse does a superb job of guiding the reader through the plot, reconciling the dissonance between his intentions and the reader's interpretations — which as any writer or student may know all too well, is not an easy feat to accomplish.
In this novel, a reader may find A gripping take of the hero's journey, stellar imagery, a goldmine of sociological analysis, and a truly authentic sci-fi story line. If you happen to be a lover of sci-fi, or are in the need of good reading material to enrich your life, Atmosphere We Don't Orbit but Fall the Same is a brilliant read worth investing in.
This book is awesome! It was surprising and interesting. I was totally engaged with the idea of people being able to communicate with each other through dreams. I don't typically read sci-fi but now I am hooked!
I really enjoyed this book! The alien races are realized imaginately thru subtle descriptions of their habits and preferences. You feel the claustrophobia and stir craziness building in Phlox as he begins his voyage and tends to his responsibilities. The weird endings to each chapter with the dialog between the mysterious speakers were intriguing. Looking forward to more from this author.
I'm not an avid sci-fi reader, but the book cover intrigued my curiosity. The story was okay, but I had to think too much. You need a very imaginative mind to read this book.
