Review title: Interesting Ideas But Poor Plot
Product review: The ideas in this book are very interesting in terms of the interactive storybook as well as other nanotechnology references. The bad thing is, as with too many hard sci-fi stories, the characterizations are paper thin. I wound up not caring about any of the characters except the little girl but her story is poorly intertwined with the others subplots. The novel just meanders along and completely loses direction at the end. I can't honestly tell you what the point of the book was. Interesting science ideas don't mean anything in a weak plot.
