Rigel

Characters have little to no development with the protagonist having absurd skills right from the start. Story feels like it's trying to make a weird political point in a very sloppy way.

I was really hoping to enjoy this book based on reviews and summaries I read but after completing it I can solidly say I did not enjoy the process.

If you're looking for a complex sci-fi story with interesting commentarty intertwined, while this book at first my sound perfect I would stay away from it.

The storry is slow and drawn out with no real conclusions, and overall extremely unsatisfying. While the novel touches on concepts like race, sexuality and mental illness, it does little more than say “hey these things exist” and by the nature of the book does little to place them in society.

All in all, I found this book more unpleasant than anything else, would skip.

Thoroughly enjoyed the entire trilogy but was very surprised by how better the last book is. The novel physics interplays with the plot marvelously, I don't think any other time travel narrative even comes close. 

The plot loses me a bit on this one. There's just an excessive amount of things going wrong all at the same time.

An interesting look at an inevitable revolt against the climate catastrophe. Slow at times, fast at others, a great read. Luckily missed the mark on how polluted our everyday world is now, but still hits the nail on the head of general apathy towards change for the betterment of our world.
