Decent writing. Well, actually pretty good writing. Somehow the individual stories were more fun than the overall story! After I understood what was going on I was less enthused but finished the book just to see how he would wind it up. Not sure I will read more of this author. (

Very odd and surprising stand alone book that appears to be alt history but turns out as something quite different. (

A complex and intriguing story that evolves in unexpected ways. Turns darker towards the end, but has some serenity built into it, as character's struggle is towards a goal and makes sense, even if their options are not that great. Combines skillfully multiple settings across time periods and places (real and not) in an interesting and believable way. The main character is the AI of a land module that must contribute to rescue the crew from an alien spacecraft. In order to do this it must allow one of the crew members to die, solving a mathematical problem. The ending does not solve the struggles clearly, but gives hope that success was at least an option. Very well crafted so that lots of things make sense). Really enjoyable! (

I'm really not sure what I fell about this book; it was intriguing enough to keep me reading to the end, but I felt that maybe I was missing something.

I'm not sure of it was the way it was written, but I am curious enough to try reading another of this Author's books, and will edit this review accordingly when I have done so. (

It isn't every day you get to experience a perfect collision of the Romantic macabre of Edgar Allan Poe and H. P. Lovecraft with The Usual Suspects and 2001: A Space Odyssey. So much of the book's joy is working out which bits are real and which are misdirection on the way to unlocking the final mystery. Trust me, you don't want this spoiled by more plot details.
