The writing isn't Suarez' best. The plot and pacing were great, and I loved the sci-fi aspects overall. However, the characters were flat, and the dialogue oscillated between stilted and preachy. The similes were out of control; sometimes nested within one another.
There were several issues with the basic science of the book. I know it sounds like nitpicking, but when one scientists says to another "You and I both know that gravity is the most powerful force in the universe," it really takes me out of the story.
That being said, I typically put a book down if I'm not enjoying or appreciating it; and this one kept me entertained throughout.
