I like the concepts behind the book., but I could not engage with the writing style. There are multiple intertwined story lines, and the story viewpoint flips back and forth between them. Sometimes the same scene is played several times from different perspectives. This was, at first interesting, but quickly became irritating, and eventually boring. I am still deciding about reading the next book.
