Parts of the novel are very good, lots of concepts, but falls down seriously in latter third. Lots of great concepts that don't quite pan out. BETTER than Century Rain.
A comment re WWE sub-genres. I question using the sub-genre tag "space opera" when we are only dealing here with a single planet in the entire narrative.
My rating system: I begin with one star being equivalent to a rating of "C -". Progressing upwards, I add ½ star for each step, up to the maximum 5 stars, which is equivalent to a rating of "A"+. I reserve ½ star for BOMBS, there being no option of zero or negative stars.
