Absolutely loved the sarcastic tone of this book, especially the "Hermit Kingdom" digs at the UK throughout. The introspection about the relationship of the human race to the planet as a whole and other species was really interesting, although sometimes a little long-winded and self-flagellating. I really enjoyed the ending, I thought it was a good blend of realism and sci fi that made it extremely satisfying.
