A review by ladamic
Marooned in Realtime by Vernor Vinge

3.0

The future in this book is incredibly interestingly imagined. But there is no action (unless you count some tame arguing, database lookups and reading a diary of someone living with monkeys as action) for the first 70+% of this book. The Agatha Christie murder mystery framing could have worked, but somehow did not add excitement to the plot.
