A Great Disappointment
Any additional comments?
Very complex plot, which in itself is not bad, but in this case poorly executed. Narration was very good, unfortunately the story was not. The lead character is in complete denial throughout 85-90% of the book as to the reality of his situation to the point being very aggravating. The ending is rather ho-hum and is not satisfying; when I read fiction I prefer the “good guys’ to win decisively.

Not very good...
Some interesting, but not overly memorable characters in a plot that fails to click or engage. I really enjoyed Spin by Wilson, and the sequel Axis was decent, but this was not a very enjoyable listen (narration was fine). One of the few audio books I did not enjoy.

A bit of a let down
I got this audio book after listening to Charles Wilson's other titles on this site. I really liked The Chronoliths and Blind Lake, but this was a bit of a disappointment in comparison. It seems to take a while for the story to get going and even then it is disjointed and doesn't flow. I didn't connect with any of the characters and found I didn't care about their fates. I would recommend both Blind Lake and The Chronoliths, but this one I wouldn't bother with.
