The narrator, Tyler, is accused by his ex-girlfriend of being dispassionate and cold... which kind of sums up my problems with the storytelling.
Nothing of real note happens to Tyler directly (so far), and I can't help wondering if the story wouldn't have been richer telling the tales of Diane & Jason (the genius twins who Tyler orbits) directly, rather than secondhand.

At last we reach the big reveal... and he's got diamonds growing in his eyes...

Best chapter ending so far - a bit of genuine action:
"Tyler, there are some troublesome things happening at the ranch. You can't just walk in here."
Troublesome things? "I thought a new world was being born."
"Born in blood," Simon said.

I'm still on the fence with this one... very solid writing and interesting ideas, but lacking any real pace/urgency/passion/immediacy, etc. Feels flat. Distanced.

Great concept, well written, wistful tone... but the page-to-page story isn't gripping me all that hard. Very put-down-able.

There's something about the lens used which feels very familiar... narrator is an everyman watching genius twins take opposite scientific/religious response to apocalypse event/thread.
I can't quite place it though...

Good concept, wistful execution, shall be interesting to see how it grows on me. Read some mixed reviews but willing to give it every chance to impress :-)
