Negative Positive
Title: Starts great, then dissolves into gray goo
Review: The first 50 pages of ACCELERANDO were exciting and insightful and mind-blowing and fascinating and fun. And then it became a self-parody of overwrought, ideas-at-the-expense-of-interesting-characters science fiction. Given all the praise for this book, I was sharply disappointed.
