I nearly dnf'd this book, the beginning doesn't leave much to be invested in, but definitely lays the groundwork for a really interesting story.
One thing I really appreciate about some earlier Sci-fi writers is the ability to create stories that transend the time period in which they are written. The innovation to break down ideals and create a whole new world to explore them is so mesmerizing. The prose I think lends itself to the timelessness of the novel.
