A great book with a very unique plot and conflict. Confusing only from cultural differences both in pacing, names, and voices

Excelente libro si te gusta la física, la ciencia ficción y el suspenso. Muy bien escrito y bien manejada la historia. Me pongo a leer el segundo de la trilogía de cabeza!!

yap yap yap tells you everything and leaves no space for organic narratives. the fictional science in the end was interesting but the structure of this book is the equivalent of throwing paper in your face and the author just walking you through every single plot point like its a book report. its dull.
