Dispersion

I honestly didn’t love this one. I wouldn’t say it was bad; it was definitely creative, not something I’ve imagined in a world, but it wasn’t groundbreaking or mind-blowing. The most prominent feature of the book was the scientific method, and the trials that are required of investigating a totally foreign process. In a way it felt like social commentary, with everyone pointing fingers at everyone else, and only a few actually trying to make progress. In the end I didn’t feel very satisfied, things were resolved in a way but I wasn’t left as much information about the Dispersion as I would’ve hoped.

It was short so I didn’t lose much time by reading it, but it’s not one that I think I would return to. Worth a couple bucks and a rainy afternoon if you’re the type who likes investigative science and weird settings.
