Title: One star because he wrote it, one because I read it
Product review: Amid some wonderful descriptions of scenic landscapes is a story that doesn't quite lift itself to the same height. It could have been, I thought, but when a major storyline ended suddenly and in a way that made me groan, the reality of the situation hit home. The ending thudded like the author remembered he had to be somewhere and so he decided to slap something together. The story--which was totally different from what I expected from Patterson--had so much going for it, with its brilliant, science fiction premise. And for that, you still might enjoy it.
