Pandora's Star by Peter F. Hamilton

3.0

A thousand pages and you still can't bring the sodding thing to some sort of conclusion. Going to take a whole other book is it? In the so called 'Golden Age' this could have been put to bed quite satisfactorily in about 300 pages. Shame really cos the story is quite interesting, just leaves a bad taste in my mouth thinking I'm going to have to work my way through another 1000 pages just to get to the bottom of it all. Wouldn't be so bad if the writing and world building were top notch, making it a pleasure just to immerse oneself in it, but it isn't and the only thing that has kept me ploughing on is the storyline. Like I said, a thousand bloomin' pages, oh come on!
