Review: This is an outline of an idea, not a finished story

My title basically explains my feelings for this story.  I'm sure that Alexander McKinney will disagree with me and say that this is a finished story, but it read like an outline rather than a finished story.Worse, the plot seemed to be compressed.  I don't want to give away spoilers, but the events on Earth occur extremely fast considering all that is going on.  I can understand the reasoning behind writing the tale that way, but I just couldn't get my imagination around some of the twists in the plot.The overall idea is interesting, but the way this was written took the character out of the characters and put the plot on a rail line direct to the ending with few scenes that brought out any real emotion for me.  I have to say that this was a definite disappointment.
