Review title: Pretty Hokey
Product review: Robert J. Sawyer is one of those SF authors, like Robert L. Forward (what is it with these Robert guys?), who comes up with interesting and original ideas, but then fails to build a credible story or believable characters around it. I found myself in utter disbelief and completely bored by the end of the book. It was a big disappointment.
