4.0

Overall, I quite enjoyed the read and Pohl's writing style.  The main character is written to be unlikable and over the course of the book, he goes from unlikable to truly despicable.  

This may turn some readers off, but I remain thoroughly entertained and invested in the world.  I felt that the world-building was excellent, and the world really felt lived in.
