Fast paced, then slow paced, then fast paced again. The middle was very difficult to follow (on purpose, I believe). My favorite aspect was the science/philosophy/history fusion. I think I would have had a more enjoyable time reading a physical copy. I very much love the varying perspectives, especially at the end. The game element was very unique as well. Unfortunately, this book confirms my practice of not reading books by men. There were few non-men characters and they were often just described by their breasts.
