Again, not by anything clever, but just by a Bob getting to the stasis pod first. And then the court case is won, not by anything clever anybody did, but just because that's how it was. Bridget absolutely does not want to be digitised at all.until she suddenly does, off-camera. I partly mentioned that with the Poseidon stuff. The Brazilian replicant comes back for no reason and then is just squashed with a slap.īut my biggest complaint is that the resolutions to plots seemed to be unearned. Everything with the Deltans seemed to be just marking time until Archimedes died in order to give Bob the impetus to get on with his life. I felt the same about Bob with Archimedes. The whole plot is the resident Bob saying "well, I'm not actually going to fight back", until it goes "well, I did fight back and won easily". I found all those chapters to be a drag.īut, more to the point, they're a perfect example of one of the things I found off about the book as a whole - the plot just sort of meanders around a bit without really doing much. But I found the third book harder going than the other two, and ultimately the least satisfying.įirstly, there were a couple of plot threads that I just didn't care about. I've just finished the trilogy and, while it was never more than lightweight froth with an obvious author-insert, it was fun enough for what it was.
