This one took me a while to really latch onto, but in the end it turned out to be an enjoyable read. I grew to really like the main characters and enjoyed their interactions moreso than the long descriptions of nature (which make my eyes glaze over as I have a hard time visualizing such complex scenes in my head) or destruction of property (this book is a not-so-subtle guide to environmentalist destruction!). Overall, it was a fun read, but not the most engaging work of fiction on my bookshelf.
