I am so glad you liked this. I read this back in May, and didn't enjoy
it as much as you did. The setting and science were great. My main
problems were with the characters, but since the next one seems to share
very few characters (if any) with this one, I plan to give it a try.

I am guessing the characters were too shallow for you or maybe you did
not like Geoffrey, the simple elephant man protagonist? The cousins were
unusual but while the plot was unravelling, I was more interested in the
setting and 'science'. (The fantasy book read before this, The House in
the Cerulean Sea, was 95% relationships so perhaps I was glad to escape
that atmosphere.)
