moki's review against another edition

Okay. I have literally no good reason to not like it--but I don't. Very literary sci-fi rather than *genre* sci-fi, the latter of which being what I actually like to read. I can just imagine this sitting and languishing, so I'm allowing myself to DNF it so it doesn't have to! :-)
