Jens reviewed Sleeping Giants by Sylvain Neuvel
Review of 'Sleeping Giants' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Great premise, some interesting characters (some less than others), a plot that left me wainting to know what would happen next - a pleasant SciFi reading experience.
Yes, there's a LOT of info dumping. And the fact that the whole book is written in the form of interviews and reports doesn't make it more accessible. Some of the characters are two-dimensional. Parts of the plot are so far-fetched, they probably come from outer space (ha!).
But here I was, turning the pages to see what's up with that enormous statue. Definitely a purpose fulfilled: I wanted more, and will probably pick up the next book in this series at some point.
