5.0

This book had high ratings and it did not disappoint me! From the compelling plot, to the wonderful characters of Ryland Grace and Rocky, this book has it all. The math and science components were outside of my comfort zone but the author also made them very accessible to a non-scientist. I particularly enjoyed how Dr. Grace approached everything with such a scientific mind. He followed the scientific method to work out solutions to the many problems he encountered.

I also enjoyed the humour of the book. There were many occasions when I laughed out loud. This added so much enjoyment to an already incredible book.

I also appreciated the ending. No plot spoilers here - but I definitely felt that the ending was just perfect and it kept me guessing right until the very end.

This is definitely a five star book for me.
