I'm so glad my first Thompson was Far from the Light of Heaven, because I was quite disappointed with this one. It started off with a MC I was interested in and cool world building in a future within an alien biodome. But I don't know what happened in the middle 50% and I didn't care about the plot or our MC - it just took too long to get to the last 100 pages that were the most interesting part. I think I did a disservice to this one by consuming via audiobook, since I think reading it would have been better to absorbing the many layers. I will check out Thompson's future works because I loved The Light of Heaven so much, but if I started with this one I would be very apprehensive to try more.
