Binary Cycle Disruption was a very enjoyable and fast moving read.  I really like the sci fi ideas behind the story and the world building was good.  Character development for the male characters was also good, especially Jonathas.Character description for the female characters Cassidy and Skyia was problematic for a couple of reasons.  First, the mother/daughter relationship was weird and unrealistic to the point of creepy.Second, the excessive and frequent descriptions of the physical appearances of these two women.  I know it's popular among some authors to make their female main characters worthy of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, but it's still irritating to hear over and over that the women are so sexy, attractive to men, and in the important scientist Cassidy's case, has "a figure that many men lusted after and held in their minds."Since is is a sci fi, not romance novel, I don't see why this level of (repeating) description of the womens' attractiveness to men is necessary.  This issue is why I did not give an otherwise outstanding book 5 stars.I think this author has tremendous writing ability, and is among the best indie writers I've read.  I believe this writer has what it takes, and I've already bought part two of Binary Cycle.
