    I just had a friend tell me he loved the whole series (with caveats), why didn’t you like it?

      The handwaving “science” part. And then in the end there’s this deus ex machina plot point that comes out that makes all the rest of the plot utterly pointless.

      I’ve read a lot of SF, that was the worst because I had such high hope for it after reading what everyone had to say about it. And it turned me off reading anything that’s won a Hugo entirely. That and Redshirts…

        That definitely makes sense. What’s a good SF book you’ve read recently?
