Salvation by Peter F. Hamilton
1.0
This book is bad. DNF.
I went into it with high expectations because, you know, its Peter F Hamilton. But, this book fails to meet even the basic standards of story writing.
The premise is interesting as is the prologue. But then the suckage starts. There is a long chapter on some random individuals (whom I am sure will be part of the story later on), but this killed the pacing. It was boring and full of cliches. And then at the end of the interminable chapter, I found out that the prior chapter was a flashback. And then there is a flashback within a flashback. WTF.
I tried to read some more beyond this point but I gave up.
Avoid.
