Notes
So good! I think about this book still sometimes even thought I finished it about a year ago. The world (universe) that he creates is vivid and imaginative. The way he weaves in details from our world in this exaggerated sense to create an alternate reality is really well done. From AI to arachnids and space travel, he takes them to the next level (or 20) to tell a story that ultimately reflects humanity.
It's also an easy read. There's enough action and intrigue to keep the pages turning. (Or in my case, keep hitting 'play' since I listened to it.)
