Change Agent

This started out really intriguing but then got rather boring and predictable. All the world building was great, the future of 2043, with genediting, a neverending refugee crisis, biohacking, etc but all this fades away when the plot becomes pure action-driven. Suddenly there are stereotypical baddies and our hero's path is conveniently filled with helpful allies. He doesn't even have to do much thinking, as all the solutions (and so much money and equipment) are pretty much just handed to him. The psychological troubles he experiences on 2 pages during this adventure feel uninspired and like a forced add-on. Also, what sexist future is this with this less than exciting men-women ratio.

2.5, but I gotta go with 2, because it just went downhill, which means it disappointed me more.
