Uprising
on Oct. 04, 2011
Good things:
Excellent writing, and intriguing action; thought provoking.
Most characters were well developed and multi-dimensional, not always doing what you expected and not all good or all bad. I especially enjoyed the development of Michaels - very believable.
Not too "saccharine", and therefore more believable and unpredictable.
An excellent read - I had trouble putting it down.
Not so good:
A bit too violent for my taste; a few characters too stereo-typically "bad" and several scenes too predictable; "science" not super believable (although you're usually too caught up in the action to notice.)
Overall:
Excellent read. Amazing for a first novel!
