n the far future, humanity has divided into two diametrically opposed groups. The Edenists are genetically engineered space-dwellers with telepathic affinity for their biotechnological homes and ships. The Adamists, effectively the Luddites of the future, are willing to pioneer new worlds, much as their ancestors did hundreds of years ago. The two groups, peopled by fascinating characters, clash on a primitive world called Lalonde, setting in motion a tale of adventure unparalleled in this universe.

Review of 'The Reality Dysfunction Part I' on 'Storygraph'

Extremely fun read for the most part. It was a little meandering with a fairly huge cast of characters and lots that seemed a little inconsequential, but I'm hoping everything comes together in the later books. Joshua's character was my main issue with the book, everything just goes far to well for him, but it seemed like he was developing more of a conscious and perhaps moving towards a less misogynistic character near the end of the book. I'm crossing my fingers that those changes continue in the next book and there are consequences to some of his actions.
