Bizarre character behavior was so jarring I couldn't get through this one.
A promising start that fizzled out and ultimately led to me putting this one down.
Master Assassins is probably a good first book in what may be a very intriguing series, but I’ll never know for sure since it was a DNF for me.
The pacing is all wrong on this one, with characters that are flung at the reader and just as quickly tossed away.
A one rocket bomb. I couldn't finish To Fall Among Vultures due to the erratic writing, flat characters, and confusing storytelling.
Some people might like this book, but I didn't. Flat writing and flatter characters means a DNF in my book. I do love the cover, though.
Readers of The Martian will want to love this book. I did. Unfortunately, I came away disappointed. Unsophisticated writing and juvenile humor made Artemis a slog which I finally had to give up on.
As the continuation of Jules Verne's classic 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, it's depressing to consider how great of a novel Nemo Rising could have been. Unfortunately, my only recommendation here is to give it a pass on your reading list.
