A review by t3db0t
The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O. by Nicole Galland, Neal Stephenson

2.0

This is a historical romance novel consulted on by Neal Stephenson about military bureaucracy with a thin, unsatisfying sheen of time travel and magick. Did not finish.

Really fucking disappointing since the first couple of chapters were really exciting and the overall premise is a terrific scifi conceit: magick is the manipulation of 'strands' of the multiverse. But just as it gets going, it morphs into an insufferably tedious historical romance novel. Now, I mean, I LIKE a good naked dagger fight between hot dudes (who doesn't?), but jesus this became boring as fuck.

Sigh.
