Title: A cliched, unscientific and boring tale of colonization.
Product review: I had high hopes for this one, but they came crashing down soon after I began to read it. I did persevere and finish it, but regretted it. The characters (and it tries very hard to be a character study kind of novel) are one-dimensional and unbelievable (and I mean that in the worst way). The "science" is laughable and its perpetuation of national and religious stereotypes is inexcusable in a genre based on progressive thinking
