4.0
Die anderen 50% sind Menschen auf einem Raumschiff, die versuchen eine neue Erde zu finden. Am Anfang dachte ich noch, sie werden mit den Spinnen interagieren, aber das tun sie nur in zwei Kapiteln des gesamten Buches. (Auch die Kurzbeschreibung ist so geschrieben, dass man denkt, dass die Menschen und die Spinnen tatsächlich interagieren werden.)
Autor: Ich will ein Buch über intelligente Spinnen schreiben!
Verlag: Okay, wenn du es SciFi machen kannst.
Autor: Ich hab eine Idee entwickelt, wie die Grundlage, warum die Spinnen intelligent sind, SciFi ist.
Verlag: Nein, wir brauchen mehr Raumschiffe! Und Krieg! Zwischen Menschen! Sonst ist es keine *echte* Science Fiction.
Enttäuschend.
Bei den Menschen sind es eher durchgängig dieselben Charaktere - aber dennoch ausgearbeitet, mit Persönlichkeiten. Man nimmt wirklich an ihrem Leben Teil - bei den Spinnen liest es sich, trotz Mühen, eher wie ein Bericht. (Alles andere halte ich aber auch für unmöglich, wenn man ständig Jahre springt.)
Sollte sich jemand, wie ich, für die Spinnen interessieren, würde ich das Buch immer noch empfehlen - ich würde nur dazu empfehlen, jedes zweite Kapitel zu überspringen.
