Basically just an entire novel of descriptions of lab experiments and scientific discussions. Kudos to the author for making it way less boring than it sounds though. Great read if you like that sort of thing more than I do.

This book is insanely fast paced and interesting, the stakes are high, the characters are well rounded, the plot is flawless.

Definitely a quick read! The scientific aspect kept me curious, and information was revealed at a good pace. The ending was a bit anticlimactic, and there were a few dangling plot points, but overall an interesting idea.
