I couldn't finish. The first half was more interesting than the last bit on Earth. Distinct lack of women characters except in passing mentions.

The concept was enough to keep me reading despite the bombardment of typos and editing mishaps. Perhaps worse than those was the cringe-worthy representation of female characters. Not a single one mentioned or described without some sexual or attraction context. Even the military women are mostly ignored despite the male counterparts being center stage. And if he described a female as being masculine in any way (temperament or physically) he was quick to mention they were all feminine... Don't worry single-minded cis male readers who were clearly the target audience. For this reason, I will not be continuing with the series.

This was just ok for me. It's an interesting premise but for such a short story...it really dragged for me. I was never really sucked into the story the way I wanted to be. It wasn't bad...just didn't really do it for me.

Interesting premise, but it quickly got boring.
