"Bored bored bored bored bored bored bored bored," is a great summary of how I felt about this book. I was baited by its plot where astronauts travel for two years to Titan, but the authors decided to completely skip the travel there and back and all we got were just mere 10 pages or so. Not to mention the plot holes and the science that did not quite scienced.
When the plot finally started going somewhere, it ended suddenly and I realized that it was always the plan for the book to end on a major cliffhanger. I think it would work perfectly as a TV show as it was originally supposed to be, but even as that I would probably trash talk about it, because it is simply not good and not worth waiting for the sequel. It could entertain people who like soft sci-fi or people who typically don't read sci-fi at all.
Detour had a very promising start to be a new awesome sci-fi series, but unfortunately the first book got boring really quick as it is bland and pretty stereotypical with every cliché you could think of.
