Great ideas, concepts and science but the story itself isnt that thrilling. Or maybe more the way in wich it is written. Also a really unsatisfying ending.

Impressive, especially for its age. The research that went into it, the speculation, all good stuff.

There were some plot holes, but it was mostly fine.

Least favorite thing was the false sense of urgency even toward the end

when you realized that it wasn't urgent at all actually.
