This is a big book, but also, like the other 2 books in the series (Voyage, Titan) deals quite a lot with personal relationships on earth before getting on with the business of the story. (Piece of moon rock is brought to the earth and something else came with it)
But its worth holding out for, its good, very good. The science is spot on, as one would expect from Baxter!
The only niggle I have is probably down to the particular edition I have (Voyager paperback)
Baxter is British, yet there are a lot of Americanisms-aluminum instead of aluminium for example. It seems it was geared towards an American audience even though its set largely in Scotland!
But apart from that it is definitely a great read.
