wombatnation 's review for:
Mind's Eye
by Douglas E. Richards
I found this book easy to put down. So easy that I almost didn't finish it. The writing is often clunky and ham-fisted and the characters are cliched and as shallow as cardboard cutouts in a movie theater lobby. The cartoonish villains are ridiculous.
On the good side, Richards strings together a few creative ideas and throws in a few curveballs. It's also a fast read that is well suited to lounging by the pool, or heavy multitasking.
But it's all for naught, as he has the characters repeatedly explain the plot in exhausting detail. I felt like I was trapped in a Powerpoint presentation - here's what I'm going to tell you about, now I'm telling you about it and finally I'm going to summarize it all for you.
