Negative Positive
Title: Strong beginning, but..
Review: The first few chapters were original in content and writing style. I was intrigued and reading on in hopes of high "original" adventure. Alas, the author quickly ran out of his promising creativeness and the book turned into an amalgam of other sci-fi books. It felt like reading Ringworld meshed in with some others. My interest was lost and I skimmed through the latter two thirds of the book without losing much.
Is the review positive or negative?
