Agreed. I also felt like any of the 3 or 4 distinct plot lines would've worked as their own story, but as it was, I had trouble getting interested in any of them (or being able to tell major characters apart - a sure sign of a problem!) While I was duly impressed at the amount of scientific information, I wish Bear was an author who was less interested in impressing us with the amount of research he did. If I read one more passage set in/about Seattle.. give it up, you live in the NW, you like it, ok, get over it ^_^ I tried to read Darwin's Children (the 2nd book) but was unable to finish it. Just more of the same, turned up to 11. -k-
