Title: Dialogue silly; some inaccuracies in technical details
Review: I gave up on this book 250 pages though because it couldn't hold my interest. Aldrin and Barnes are more technically oriented than some but they went in a little over their heads. I appreciate technical details but they must be consistent and accurate, otherwise they annoy and detract from the plot. The plot wasn't all that coherent in the first place--this was not "page turner". The dialogue was not realistic. The charaters' speech were too artificial in their use to explain this and that. Some of the subjects the "professionals" spoke about were too simplistic for actual professionals to discuss. They sounded more like space enthusiasts. Maybe I would have enjoyed this more as a juvenile.
