I had been wanting to read this book for a while, so I eagerly tore into it when it arrived. Unfortunately, it was not a very satisfying read. The main character was hard to relate to and the milieu of the collapsing economy not well drawn out. Further, the overall mystery (where are the chronoliths coming from and how do we stop them!) was not solved with any satisfaction. The book would have been more interesting if it had shifted view points throughout rather than sticking with the main character who just seemed to stumble blindly through life (although perhaps that was part of the point the author was trying to make). In short-- the concept for the book was interesting, just not well executed.
