I just finished it. I enjoyed the second half more than the first. More action, pacing was better...more stuff 'happened.'
The tech was fun, though a few things made me go "huh?" Like,
What I actually liked best about it was that while it was unabashedly the first of series, with story lines left open for other books, it was a completely satisfying self-contained novel. It didn't leave me feeling like it was just a first chapter. There was a definite feeling of "The End" rather than "To Be Continued...."
I should go find that thread of sf books that are NOT parts of series, because I'm getting kind of tired of that.
