This book was offered for free from the author over Christmas; I am glad to have taken advantage of the opportunity. This is one of Nuttall's earlier works and has a couple rough spots. It's nothing a good editor couldn't fix and they are not prevalent enough to detract from the overall story.There are some dark moments and some definite slow segments (like the first half). Once the story gets moving it goes almost too quickly... It feels a little like going from plodding to long jumps with only a chapter or so in between. Nuttall has found his stride in latter works and his pacing is easy to follow. It was interesting not only to see the human struggle against an almost impossible foe but also to see the early kernels of ideas that Nuttall has better developed in later works.Not a great read; but a good one and definitely worth the price. >grin<
