I enjoyed this book in the end, a very interesting premise and fully developed characters. The timeline is so long and the pace quite slow, which I do think fits the story, but for me personally made it difficult to really get into for a long reading session. Glad that I did finish this book though, and appreciate the ending and the lessons that can be drawn from this book in our own timeline.
