Finished Steel Egg and I got to say that this last run of novels haven't met up to the previous Bantam ones.
I'm still digesting it but it had moments I didn't mind and started to lose me the more the author introduced the Giff species and their flying Diamond shaped hover boards...ugh...
Reynolds was a rather interesting character for being a piece of shit ha. I wouldn't have minded more insight from his point of view.
The UNIC, CANC and the company description were interesting in setting up what earth was going through in regards to planetary exploration and settlements. I also really liked how the author described the facehuggers attack on the humans, I felt he made the most descriptive explanation on how they attack ones face.
Other than that, it was a mess. Each time they were in the steel egg spaceship I just rolled my eyes and hoping they'd move on. The description of the Giff species was kinda confusing to me and the author really focused on them, it took it from a horror type of novel to fantasy, and not in a good way.
Maybe if he left out the Giff and diamond skateboards it would've grabbed me more, who knows.
Other than that there really isn't much more to say about it, honestly. It was kinda just bland, blah...
Up next is Criminal Enterprise...
