While most of the book was an enjoyable, if light, read, it ultimately suffered from one of my pet peeves. I don't care how many people are killed in any book, but if an animal is deliberately tortured or killed in the story, the book goes in the trash. I realize this is probably a mental illness, but it's my mental illness. I'm refuse to read something that bothers me.

I expected science fiction. I got space horror. And cheesy space horror, at that. I kept expecting it to get better, but it never did.

A bit of a disappointment.

Wow. Don't expect to get anything else done while you're reading this. It has to be among the top 3 books I've ever read.

I hadn't realized this was a young adult book. Normally I don't mind young adult, but once the author had the CNO giggling like a petulant schoolgirl in a meeting with the president, I just couldn't take any more. I'm sure there's lots of action and adventure in this book, and although it's an interesting premise, it's just not for me.
