It only took a little more than 9 months to read. And I teared up in the end. Good book.

Would love to hear your thoughts when you're done... Maybe start a new thread? I just finished it a couple weeks ago; my first Peter F Hamilton book.
You doing e Audible or the Kindle or both?
Hmm, it's got whispersync for voice too now.
Audible. Thanks y'all. I'll give you my thoughts three years from now when I'm done, lol.
I had to delete a bunch of stuff off my phone just to get all 5 Audible segments to fit!
Tom, I think you'll love the detective stuff. I did the Audible version -- and it went really fast.
My goodness! Are you still reading this? Did you lose interest or is just because the audio is 517,498 hours long?
9 months.. It's like you had a baby..
lol, Rob. i was going to say the same thing :)
Considering the size of the book, I think the review should be at least 10 pages.
True. And I should keep flashing back to the way I lived before the book, describing what led me to read the book.
Woo hoo! You did it! Think how much room you'll free up on your phone by deleting those Audible files! So, your final thoughts?
Seriously, can someone just make everything Peter F Hamilton has ever done into 10 years of thrice-weekly TV shows? So damn long!
Now you have time to read Frank Schatzing's Limit. It's only 1227 pages.
I like long detailed densely-plotted books. This was the first PFH book I "read" (actually listened to thirty-four hours on Audible). There were passages that could have been cut, but then the story would have suffered without that extra bit of detail.I am now actually reading the first Commonwealth book. I'm looking forward to getting lost in all of the detail.
