Titan Books The Rig

I'll rate this one 100%!

Let’s keep this problematic review short and simple (unlike the book itself)- I get the distinct impression the author quit writing this book for several months and jumped back in two thirds of the way and fired off a bunch of plot twists in rapid succession that rambled and wrapped up poorly.- At least four characters were not at all necessary and had long, drawn out scenes that padded the book.- Lack of description. There’s almost no description to anything, it’s written like: and this happened. And then this happened. And this happened. Any description it contains is vague and it’s like hitting a wall of ice. You can’t connect to the story, setting or characters.- The back cover does a terrible job of setting a scene or ides for what is in this book. Don’t expect what you read there to be what’s delivered.- Overlong and overwritten, especially at the end. I was furious and wanting to yell at it to just hurry up and end already.- The ending absolutely destroyed whatever shreds of goodness the book carried.I rated this book 2 stars. It wasn’t bad but it wasn’t good either. It definitely has a highly specific audience.

I need to care for the main characters if a book shall 'pull me in'. Here I could not care less what happened to them. The concept is interesting, though, and 'world-building' 100% original.

this makes for good reading

Arrived fast and safely, thank you
