Eh. This was okay, but it’s a lot different than what I expected it to be. The only part I really enjoyed was the beginning when they were finding all the pieces of the robot and putting it together. Once I got to the part all about threats of war and global conflict I completely checked out. I can’t express how little I care about a possible war with Russia that we never end up seeing.
Also, I found every single character (except for Rose) very irritating. Especially when that ridiculous love triangle started happening. If there was any book I did not want to have to deal with a love triangle in, it would be the book that was supposed to be about an ancient space robot.
For those reasons, I will not be continuing with this series. I can see why some people would like it, and it’s not a bad book don’t get me wrong. Its just definitely not for me.
