Having only read the first 10 Chapters, Drake manages to push full steam ahead with a concept of space travel by populations that struggle with modern technology at a most basic level - yet having access and the full understanding of extremely complex and modern equipment. A paradox that blends into a very well written novel with tight action scenes and three di-mentional characters. Well worth the read.
