You know the problem with this book? You buy it on your Nook and it says “270 pages” and you trust that and get to page 230 and think you have 40 pages left and then all of a sudden you don't because the last 40 pages are a preview of the next book and the book is over and you weren't ready for it!

This is one of the best books I have ever read. It's the kind of book I have dreamed of writing. It is smart, thoughtful, and beautiful. It is disturbing and familiar, thorough and concise, human and alien. I don't have the words to properly review the book. I immediately went and ordered the rest of the Xenogenesis series in paper because this is one of those I'm just going to want to have around. Brilliant.
