To be discussed at Powells SF Book group in Beaverton, Tuesday July 9th at 7pm. This was a big book of speculative ideas wrapped around a mostly doomed relationship. I would have preferred that the book was written as a flashback but it did work okay as that. The ideas of a singularity-ish on a galactic scale was done quite differently than I'd seen elsewhere. Its take on evolution was a bit different as well. All in all well worth talking about. So why not a 5? I guess there was just a whole lot too much deus ex machina. But I am looking forward to continuing my way through this author's catalog.
