Full disclosure - I was provided a free copy of this book by the authorUnfortunately, I can't say that I was able to get into this book. I found it hard to grasp what the plot was as it seemed to shift from location to location and person to person on a regular basis. This perhaps didn't allow for the scenes or the characters to 'gel' with me. I also felt that there wasn't enough initial depth with the characters in way that would endear them to me. this made it hard for me to become part of the story as I felt as though I was always looking from the outside rather than being part of the story.It isn't that the book is hard to read, it just didn't seem to grab me initially which made it more difficult to follow. I put this down to what I felt was a lack of character development and depth at the beginning of the book. I will readily admit that I am not a huge sci-fi fan so that perhaps also detracted fro my enjoyment of the book. The plot and the characters just didn't jump out at me early on a grab my attention. Perhaps if I had been more into sci-fi I would have enjoyed it more.
