Pew is fairly well-written with a main character and setting that invites curiosity. However, I found the ideas involved to be pretty generic, though well-handled. The main issue is that the book ends without any real closure for the reader. This is clearly intentional, but it still doesn't wrap up in a way that leaves any statement about the book's intent.
