This was an excellent start to a series, but it was about 100 pages too long. It lays the dread on heavy as we follow our cast through a number of dark and twisted encounters with AIs and space colonists. 

I loved the variety in the encounters but I think if they were all shortened a bit, we could have wrapped this entry up around the 500-550 page mark. This books has a few extraneous plot lines and flashbacks (that maybe pay off in the following entries) that felt a little disconnected from the rest of the book. 

I cannot wait to start the next entry!
