Salvation by Peter F. Hamilton
slow-paced
3.0
3 Stars because Peter F. Hamilton! (I'm a big fan of him) But...not for this book. I really disliked reading it. Stories in stories that, to me, did not add anything to the narrative except for another 60 pages. There was some mystery that kind of hooks me everytime, so I wanted to know how it ended. The big reveal left me very meh.
Okay so there's another part coming up? I wont be picking that one up for sure. Actually disappointed..

Termination Shock by Neal Stephenson

For me, the story didn't grab me. The sense of mystery, of weirdness and mindblowingness, was severely lacking. Some characters did not seem te belong in the story, they did not fulfill a meaningful role.
