It took 100 pages to start getting interesting?

Flub? Not bad, just unsuccessful?

I'd say it was something of a blunder.

No, it was interesting within the first couple pages, but it's not very well written and has some serious cheese at times.. It's your typical dystopian, high tech society novel for YAs. I might try reading one of the more classic sci-fi novels when I finish the trilogy.

Try Asimov's Foundation trilogy. It's the ****.

I'll look into it. Tx, and Thanks Batlord.

I'm currently half way through the second book of the trilogy, and still enjoying myself. It's terribly predictable, but I'm really enjoying the story and main character. Would recommend.

I ended up buying the omnibus version instead of the two remaining books, so now it just kinda feels like one big adventure. I wish more trilogies offered omnibus versions, I quite like it.
