- renke1 8y agoCan you elaborate? – A coworker is recommending that book to me. I don't want to waste my time reading it if it's really bad. I am mostly into hard science fiction.
- dirkgently 8y agoThe plot is far-fetched, but that's not the problem. It's the writing style - it feels like a cheap thriller written for teens. Too many characters and cheap tricks to 'educate' the reader about technical mumbo-jumbo. Of course, this is my very subjective opinion. But having read enough PKD and Gaiman, my expectations are different than may be majority of the readers.
