Negative Positive
Title: Boring.
Review: I enjoyed the style and premise of the book but eventually just put it down and stopped reading it for one simple reason:The good guys always win, the bad guys always lose. This theme becomes so prevelent and predictable that the battles are literally the most boring parts of the book. All the bad guys get mowed down, one good guy gets shot in the arm, hooray for humanity, repeat for every fight. It's like every Stallone/Van Damme/Chuck Norris movie all rolled into one rather cheesy book. He did a lot of this in his Mission Earth books as well, but there it was intentional and funny, in Battlefield Earth it's serious to the point of just creating a ridiculous story.Maybe 1 star isn't being completely fair overall, but this one aspect was enough to make me stop reading, so I figure it's justified.
Is the review positive or negative?
