Have mixed feelings about this book. As someone else pointed out this book has two halves. When I started reading it Andromeda Strain came to mind; moving quickly, fast paced sequence of events, unexpected turns and detailed reactions to contain/stop. Have to admit I really enjoyed it. The second half, while necessary to wrap up the story and provide background, lost some of the fun and adventure. One reviewed cited the sexual aspects as a detriment to the second half story. I half way agree however believe it is more the writing was clumsy when it came to the personal interaction - it felt unreal and forced. That aside, even though the story flow wasn't as natural still felt the story was good and the characters that needed to get their due in one way or another got what they deserved. The one thing that left me unsatisfied is towards the end really felt I was reading something written with a movie in mind, that isn't an indictment as I enjoyed the book even though I felt parts were handled unrealistically and did not always add to the story.… (plus d'informations)
