Though the structure was organized, there was very little character development (I mean did we ever REALLY learn who Avogadro was, as a man?), the plot was often confusing (why does this stoichiometry thing keep popping up?), and the conclusion was underwhelming, leaving me to speculate that the authors clearly had a sequel in mind the entire time (see: Chemistry 112).
