To Sleep in a Sea of Stars

Paolini kann vielleicht Phantasie. Eine Phantasie-Story in die Zukunft und den Weltraum zu verlegen macht leider noch keinen brauchbaren Science-Fiction-Roman. Selten so ein uninspierertes und vorhersehbares Buch gelesen.

I originally found a hardcover copy of this book in a "free books" bin, then borrowed the audiobook edition from the library. I definitely enjoyed it, but I never felt emotionally invested in the characters. The episodic nature of the plot made the book feel very long; whenever I expected things to wrap up another conflict was tacked on.
