This book was so hyped I thought I was in for something marvellous. Instead, I got a crappy version of a Crichton with none of the fun. Everyone was a caricature, many threads lead to nowhere, and it felt like Catton could not be bothered to put the research into the issues, technologies and environment to at least make it interesting.
