straylight 's review for:
The Drowned Cities
by Paolo Bacigalupi
While still good, this book just wasn't as satisfying for me as "Ship Breaker" was. Also, I had assumed it would continue the story of Nailer and Lucky Girl, but it instead backtracks to a different character -- the augment, Tool. It tells a new story in which he again plays a role but is more of a secondary to the main storyline. Don't get me wrong, I like Tool, but the character did not seem as personable in this book. Where I think it's worth reading once, for the descriptive future Bacigalupi sees before us, I don't think I will be re-reading it like I have done with "Ship Breaker."
