jameseckman's review
2.0
An OK first novel and while there are no major slips with character motivation or actions none of the characters really grabbed me either. It also contains two of my pet peeve tropes, 1,500 years from now and several horrible wars we will redivide ourselves into the old Terran nations like Scotland, Texas and Russia and that democracy was a failed experiment. The future belongs to monarchy, totalitarianism or anarchy. In keeping with this theme, several characters are noble. I feel the book cover should have been plain white with the words "science fiction" in blue, it feels very generic.
