vladco 's review for:

The Doors of Eden by Adrian Tchaikovsky
3.0

Some beautiful moments, e.g., “a single-cell creature might see its drop of water as a vast and eternal ocean, even as the sun comes out of the clouds to dry it up”. A bit repetitive at the end when a heavy-handed method is used to illustrate a basic concept. Didn’t manage to make me care much about characters as people.
