While it wasn't boring, it certainly wasn't good either. The plot was so-so, good parts and some not so well put together parts. What I just couldn't see past though, were the incredibly flat and poorly written main characters. Actually, that might be doing flat characters a disservice, they weren't just flat, which implies some sort of inner area. They were more like squiggly lines moving a bit all over the place but never with anything going on inside besides an instant of two of combined tragic-backstory and complete and utter lack of realistic judgment (at least for people in command positions, I might have believed it if they were in primary school or thereabouts).I was gonna write a bit more about the world with its Faster then light travel, paper printers and werewolves/vampires, but I think I've spent enough time. I hate reading books and thinking why on Earth the characters are doing such stupid things. And this is supposed to be the best person for that job? Come one, Sherlock Holmes would have solved the mistery in less then one hour, asking the right questions to the right people. And what is this all about female characters coming straight from the first Star Trek series, all beautiful and blonde and all men losing their little head for them? In which century are we?
What do You think about The Phoenix Conspiracy (2011)?
It was OK. Nothing groundbreaking. Felt a bit convoluted in places.
