The book starts off a little slow and takess a while for you to get into it but after the first couple of hundred pages the story really gets going and becomes incredibly interesting. The story is usual Hamilton, in that he shifts the narrative a lot although there are fewer main characters in this book than his others, mainly just Dense and Lawrence. Although a lot of people disliked the ending a lot, it didn't really bother me that much, I guess I'm a sucker for a happy ending. At times...
