Maybe this suffers because I was so excited by the premise; but I didn't enjoy it or laugh very often. Maybe I just don't know enough sci-fi references...After the he said/she said was pointed out to me, it was all I could see!Plan to give this another chance though, because I liked the premise so much and I think it may have suffered from being read between [b:A Feast for Crows 13497 A Feast for Crows (A Song of Ice and Fire, #4) George R.R. Martin https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1358261107s/13497.jpg 1019062] and [b:A Dance With Dragons 10664113 A Dance with Dragons (A Song of Ice and Fire, #5) George R.R. Martin https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327885335s/10664113.jpg 2936175]. I'd just read the first 4 books of A Song of Ice and Fire very quickly and wanted a break for a completely different type of book; but maybe I was too much in the Ice and Fire world and was expecting a book with equal depth which was impossible for this book to deliver as that's not what it's trying for.OK, second reading has been lemmed (T said). I don't know why I ever wanted to give this a second chance (said T). Even Wil Wheaton's narration couldn't save this (T said); in fact, listening to the audiobook may have highlighted the sheer pain of the ‘Dahl said/Duvall said/Hansen said/etc' every few seconds (said T).
