Odyssee 2010

This book was really good concerning characters and their relationships. I loved reading their interactions and some of their personal issues. However, for some reason, the actual plot didn't get me hooked. Maybe one aspect of it was that we spent too few time on aspects I was interested in (e.g. Hal) but the things we spent time on too often just couldn't hold my attention. The last third was much more interesting to me, but I couldn't really say for sure what my problem was before that. I would say it works as a continuation of 2001, even though it feels as if on a smaller scale.
