Downbelow Station by C.J. Cherryh

2.0

DNF after a third of the way through. Boring. The stilted, abbreviated narrative voice was somewhat maddening. The pace is glacial. It was a slog to read through and I just couldn't get any enthusiasm to turn the pages. And it was just plain depressing, no fun at all. The one positive was the character development; the author has a subtle hand at filling out personalities. That is why it got a second star from me, despite the DNF. I had high hopes; but it just wasn't for me.
