Rating: 2 stars because equations do not belong in fiction
Good story spoiled by *shudder*flinch* see above can't bear to type it again. My then-brother in law thought that I'd like the book based on my voracious reading of SF. He wasn't wrong, exactly, he just misgauged my aversion to all things mathematical. Arithmetic I'm fine with, after that it's always been a really hard slog for me.
Still, it was kind of him to make the effort and subsequent recommendations were spot-on, so he was listening. I wonder how he is doing...must be 70 by now....
