I’ve had this one recommended to me recently. How do you find it?

It’s good. If you can find enjoyment in a book that’s more about it’s fascinating premise than it is about it’s characters then it’s especially good.

I’m just getting into it. It’s an interesting premise so I’m looking forward to digging deeper.

I just finished it! It really is a great novel. The translation is great and the footnotes are pretty enlightening, considering my lack of deep knowledge on recent Chinese history.

Same, as I read it I’ve been thinking of it as Chinese Michael Crichton, but overall it’s been very good.

This makes sense to me, I just finished Jurassic Park for the first time a little over a month ago. Lots of similarities, cool premise, I don’t care much for the characters so far.
