4.5 Stars
4 stars
The books was extremely well written and it tells a great story, but there were a couple parts where the author just did some handwaving to move the story along. Each of these shattered my suspension of disbelief. I still recommend this and there is a lot of wonderful concepts here, but it's not quite up to the full 5 stars.

Interesting ideas here, but it doesn't pull it all together. Still worth a read.

Loved by others, but not me
3 stars
I know several people who love this series, but it came off as dull and bland to me. I usually like found family stories, but I have to care for the characters first, which I never did in this book. I also couldn't suspend disbelief enough to accept the general premise.

Ian McDonald Does It Again
5 stars
Yet another Ian McDonald book is a 5-star read for me, even though it is something I normally wouldn't enjoy. McDonald has a knack for writing books that are everything I normally hate (slow uneven pacing, not much happening, way too much time spent describing the background and scenery, etc.) but I end up loving. This wasn't quite as good as Hopeland, but still an excellent read.
