I remember when this novel was the next up and coming big thing, then the author wrote it into a dead end and dropped it.
Kind of a shame to, as there was some genuinely interesting and unique aspects of this story, even if it was plagued with a plethora of shortcomings. Wish the author would take a second crack at it, but this time not write it into a narrative dead end and not add so much cringe. And for the love of god stop going off point and adding the endless amounts of pointless plots. That's my single largest complaint with this story, most of it feels completely pointless, and that's honestly what killed it.
Coming across this again has left me so discontented that it makes me want to try my hand at doing a story like this, because I guarantee I could easily do a better job. The premise is interesting, just that the author failed to capitalize on it, that's what bothers me the most, it could of been so, so much better.
