Observer by Nancy Kress, Robert Lanza

3.0

Observer by Robert Lanza and Nancy Kress attempts to blend science fiction with philosophical exploration, but it ultimately falls short on several fronts. While the premise of a story centered on consciousness, reality, and the role of the observer sounds fascinating, the execution leaves much to be desired. For a book with such grand philosophical ambitions, it feels oddly shallow, bogged down by unrealistic plot points, one-dimensional characters, and a complete lack of genuine suspense.
