zubers's review against another edition
mysterious
reflective
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
2.5
I don’t know how to rate this. The characters were all…bad? It felt like the women were badly written and the men were also flat/terrible but on purpose. It kind of read like Snow Crash in that it had a plot but also had to quickly explain the technologies & culture of the future. Interesting thoughts in here, interesting ending - feels like a book that’s kind of all about the ending. I was reading it quickly as the mystery did intrigue me.
Okay how about a 2.5? Apparently it was a big deal for sci fi? I did read it because it was mentioned in an interview with SA Corey. And I definitely could see its influence on The Expanse series.
