I had a bit of an up and down experience with this book. After the first few chapters I was groaning about how bad this book was going to be and dreading reading the rest. It then started to impress me with its ability to combine Canterbury Tales with Darwinian evolution, and well to be frank...aliens. I will say though that the writing style wasn't really up my alley, and I thought the premise of the concepts and overall plot needed to be explained a bit more. I felt as though I was thrown into a tale that I had to draw a fair amount of conclusions myself, in order to comprehend what was going on. Also I could have used a bit more substance, the ending was very abrupt and very melodramatic. It left a fair amount to be desired, especially given that there was a large amount of promise. The majority of the book was a drawn out "whodunit" with a lacklustre ending and really could have used something more.
