Oh boy. I really struggled to finish this book, but every time I was about to give up, the thought that kept me going was that I would write a review when I finish it. So. Fast-paced? Absolutely not. Drawn out, unnecessary detours, characters behaving like idiots , grown-up men being childish, chaotic writing, obsession with made-up technology described in words the authors obviously don’t understand on 20 pages at a time. This book is actually several movies rolled into one, and not in a good way. No doubt “inspired by” (= stealing from) Star Wars, Back To The Future, Raiders Of The Lost Ark… and many more. I wonder wheter the authors are familiar with an old old book by the Russian author Alexander Kazancev called The Destruction Of The Planet Faena, because the characters from the past in EOT are in many cases copy paste from that book. In short, the premise is interesting, but the execution is enough to get you crying. If you are thinkin about reading this book, don’t.
