Perhaps because I read it just after reading “Orbital” which was very beautiful and poignant.

Just finished “In Ascension” and I don’t get the hype or the very positive reviews. It reads well but it is far from being “mesmerising”, “monumental” or “magnificent”.

Interesting novel but a bit too long and a little repetitive. I was expecting a fast paced spy novel but it’s quite different, not in a bad way. What I found most striking is how easily we got used to accepting very large numbers of casualties in conflict.
