    What happened?

    Pretty good story but the end left quite a bit to be desired. Maybe a second one is coming (I hope so otherwise that ending sucked).

    Good Book, not so good ending!

    It did take me a bit to get started with thestory, but it was worth it. I was not so crazy about the way it ended.

    The book keep me interested until the end...

    A great read and I liked the way the author described the environment. I felt the end was either rushed or the author had a page limit that could not be exceeded.

    Engrossing sci fi mystery

    An amazing and original piece of fiction alternating between past and present until the narrative catches up to itself, at which point the mystery rapidly comes to a fascinating conclusion. Characterization is a bit lacking, but I found I didn't mind.

    Easy to guess the "secret"

    While this is a well written book and I certainly enjoyed it, it is not a mystery at all. I had the big reveal moment at the beginning of the book instead of at the end.

    I am not sure if my Nook did something weird or if the book really just STOPS when it is done, the ending was more abrupt than I am used to. They had the reveal moment and then there was no more story. Odd and off-putting.

    The author did a good job drawing me into the character's world and I honestly wanted to know what happened next. Although I knew the end, I still wanted to see how it got there. That is a big plus for someone that reads fast.

    I would recommend it and I have, in fact, done so already.
