Review title: First book - great. Second book - not so great
Product review: The first book was a futuristic sci-fi detective story. I liked it. I really liked it a lot. The science in that book was internally consistent.This second book? Well, at least the main character has the same name. His characteristics are different. He acts differently. He even speaks differently. The science is all over the place. The brutality of the antagonists? Multiplied tenfold.Also, why the shift to a space operatic piece of garbage? We've all seen this sci-fi plot of the ancient alien civilization again and again and again. He thinks he's adding something new, but it's the same old "are we really ready to be here" tripe.Skip this book. Go read something that an entertainment and not an ordeal.
