Summary: 1 Stars
Mr. Pavlou has a very engaging writing style, and is very good at taking a bundle of what would be boring high-school taught facts and historical data, and make it palatable. He actually had me riveted all the way up to the point when the blue 'golems' appeared. At that point, I spent more time rolling my eyes and writhing in embarrassement at how bad it was than I did reading the book. Giant walking nano-bot conglomerations acting like characters they've absorbed... Sounds more like pulp fiction; not good fiction.
Unimpressive, to say the least.
