I just can't give this more than three stars, though something in me wants to. I had fun reading this book.

The author made a few logical leaps that I didn't follow, but that didn't throw me too much. The order and duration of events wasn't always clear and sometimes things suddenly took much longer or shorter times than they originally were said to take, e.g. things that had just been stated were a few minutes travel would be over an hour away just a paragraph later. A character takes off their helmet, then bumps it on the top of a door frame in the very next sentence. What most of the problems in this book boil down to is the lack of a really good editorial process.
