Review title: A waste of time
Product review: I rate this 1 star because normally I can finish a book (unless it is the Da Vinci Code). This boring meaningless wander into nowhere left me grasping for a reason for it being written and to find any sympathy with the characters.I read about two-thirds and just had to give up. He might be an award winning novelist, but not with this dross. I never liked the later Star Trek incarnations particularly because of the Holodeck (you can do anything to fill up time, create any sort of maladventure) and basically that's what this novel is.I didn't get from other reviews that it's ALL about virtual reality, and that the space ship part has hardly any relevance to the story (at least as much as I read).Boring, meaningless, and I couldn't get into the characters (BTW, they can change sex at will as well - Jeez!).Some of my SF muscle has been used up for nothing :o(
