This book felt too much like a text book with sill characters than reading for pleasure. For someone who doesn't know anything about philosophy, this could be a great intro book for them, if they enjoy this kind of thing

but, this wasn't my kind of book. I don't want to feel like it's homework. The twists and turns and special surprise sci fi kind of part of this book just wasn't interesting enough to distract from all the preaching and school talk. ...more
