Title: An Obvious Rush to Publish Job
Review: This is the first and only book I've read by this author. This book had so much promise but Baxter ruined it with poor character development and a hasty plot. Did anybody really care about Paula?The beginning third of the book was excellent. Great commentary on the socio-political landscape that we live in. Baxter pushed the politics of today to its extreme but logic conclusion. But then it seemed that Baxter started rushing - was he on a tight deadline? The pace went so fast that I was wondering "how did we get here?"The only reason that I give this book 2 stars, is the imagination that the author has. The ending was bizarre but imaginative. This book is such as obvious sloppy rush job, I don't how anyone can rate it above 3 stars let alone the highest rating of 5 stars. A 5 star rating is a classic such as Dune, not this hastily written book.Next time Baxter needs to spend more time on writing his books. I hate to see such talent go to waste.
