Review title: dissapointing ending
Product review: I'm glad I picked this up at the library rather than spending my own money on it. _Old Twentieth_ starts off with a gripping beginning to an interesting plot (outlined below by numerous reviewers) and the book has some good twists. But the ending left me furious. The teaser on the cover of the paperback edition advertises a great twist at the end.(((SPOILER ALERT))))At least one reviewer below notes that the great twist is similar to a certain Keanu Reeves movie trilogy. This book is more than similar - it mimics the trilogy flat out! A machine controls the humans in stasis, providing a series of complex virtual reality images to their brains as they travel through space until one human (again) realizes what is happening and the machine resets everyone's internal storyline back to a shared point in the past. Worst of all, this book was published in 2005, well after the aforementioned movie trilogy appeared. Didn't anyone else see the similarities?Thoroughly disappointing
