The plot was boring, there was no mystery or atmosphere, Eight and Sam both lacked their sparks, I hated every new character in it except for Fitz. Also, Earth in the recent past for a setting misses the point of a TARDIS. Plus I've been reading off of this reclist, and everything else has been recced for being good instead of for being Fitz's first book, so I'm only comparing it to the best ones.

I finished it, skipped Demontage, and am on...that one that comes after Demontage now. Still set on Earth in the 1960s, but hopefully everything else is better.
