Review:

I sort of weari­ly read this one, af­ter dis­lik­ing the pre­vi­ous one.
It's a bet­ter book, but al­so looooooong and streeeeeeetched ou­u­u­u­u­u­u­ut.

The au­thor nev­er us­es a sim­ple phrase when a longer one can be used. In this book peo­ple don't feel things. They, in­stead "sort of ex­pe­ri­ence a feel­ing" ... ev­ery­thing is cir­cum­lo­cu­tion­s, and that gets old fast.

Awe­some

It breaks my heart to not be able to live this, it does. It's ex­cel­len­t, and that is a load­ed word here. Read this tril­o­gy, please.

Please.

Nice straight­for­ward space-ish oper­a. Easy read­ing, which is very on-brand for Scalz­i.
