It was fine. An alternate universe novel with stargates as the doorway.

I appreciate Taylor's ability to come up with a cool premise but the execution here just leaves a lot to be desired. I ended up having a lot of problems with this one, including characters that feel mostly like specialized versions of the same character over and over, incredibly cliche bad guys, the clumsy use of a bad trope, and being entirely predictable.
The best thing I can say for this sequel is that at least coffee took a back seat.
If you like meetings, this book is for you.

A continuation of a pretty good story, the characters and story premis seem to take a backseat to the petty politics of the new colony.
It all feels very redundant and American, deciding who will run the new government when so much is happening to them.
I found myself, more than a few times shouting at the book 'Just pick a leader and get through it for now'.
Instead of working together to get through the deviation they start arguing about socialism Vs ageism and just screams at the reader just how American they all are.
Despite what they are going through and how desperate the situation is it all just seems trivial and silly.

Nice sequal to Outland. I'm not sure that most people would be quite so incapable of adjusting to changing conditions but how people react to such unusual situations is exactly why it's a fun book to begin with
