I, like many others, picked up a copy of this book based on the recommendation of Hugh Howey, the author of the Wool saga. As a side note, the Wool series is the tightest, freshest entry into the science fiction genre in many years. I sincerely believe we will look back and discuss the impact of Wool like the impact of Dune. So, when an author of this stature recommends a book to me, I am willing to give it a shot.I feel like Mr. Mather is trying to be a jack of all trades, and in the process has spread his narrative rather thin. The premise of Atopia is that around 2050-2075 or so, the population of earth is 10 billion, and multiple wars for resources have devastated the planet, and wealthy groups of private citizens have built floating enclaves in the middle of the ocean. As another reviewer pointed out, it's a bit like Bioshock. Within a few chapters, the author has started spinning his elaborate story of distributed consciousness and "metaverses" created by nanobots inside of people which allow them to somehow make use of the concept of neuroplasticity and "fragmentation of consciousness" to essentially create alternate realities.I try to read at least 30 science fiction books a year, and I can say that this book takes a fresh and unique premise, but kind of never gets off the ground. The story is some mixture of Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand, Neuromancer by William Gibson, and Catch 22 by Joseph Heller. Firstly, as a physician, the medical jargon and discussions are a bunch of nonsense. The premise is so convoluted that I think I would have greatly benefited from at least 2-3 introductory chapters of exposition. Instead, each chapter is told from a different perspective, with about 8 rotating narratives. The characters have no identity to follow because they are all spread across the multiverse with distributed consciousness. This book is honestly just about impossible to follow. The last book I read was Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie, which has a similar idea of distributed consciousness, but it is much easier to follow because she actually takes time to explain what is going on and allows you to follow one narrator for more than 5-10 minutes at a time.The characters are so loosely distributed into the digital world (and many of them are just abandoned after 1-2 chapters) that they hardly resonate as discrete entities. The technology is very interesting, but the story relies so heavily on the technology as to be a detriment to the plot as a whole. Relatively speaking, this is the hardest plot to follow of any book I've ever read, mainly because each chapter is told from the perspective of a new character. I was constantly trying to look back and re-read things, but eventually I got tired of doing that and just tried to make it through to the end.Anyway, this book may be worth a shot, and I'm happy I saw the unique premise through to the end, but I will certainly not be continuing this series.
Update: well I made it through the book . I admire the imagination and ambition to attempt a different type of storytelling of a fascinating (and fantastic) subject. But. The first two thirds of the book circle round and round and round and round a sprawling often repetitive amount of technical exposition and character background far too loosely-there is only a whisper of momentum propelling the story forward especially after such a promising first chapter—I still want more info and story about Olympia which to me means that starting off in such depth about Olympia was simply too much. The entire first 2/3 needs to be tightened up, which I acknowledge is difficult given the complicated story. But once you backwards engineer from the last 25% of the book you really understand which parts of the (dreadfully boring) previous 75% are foundational and necessary to the story and what’s completely extraneous. But. The idea is interesting, the story, after slogging through it all, is actually really compelling-once you finally get to what the gist of it is. I’ll be reading the rest of the series and hoping for better editing. The quality of editing for this first book in the series was criminally poor. But much credit to the author that despite that, I’m giving the rest of the series a go.____________The idea for the book itself is fantastic and well imagined. But the both the method of story telling and the content of those stories is so lacking in coherence and forward momentum. I’m at 60% and it. has. been. a. slog. The switching back and forth in first person around a whole cast of characters is tiresome and there aren’t enough overlapping points of interaction to really bring it all together. Also So. Much. Of the book is just exposition it’s actually boring. It’s as if no one edited the book. It reads like a first draft. It’s messy, tedious, and lacking focus. Hopefully the remaining 40% will redeem it if I even make it to the end - at this point I’m not sure I will. Absolutely do not recommend.
I have not read many science fiction books, and never one like this. There is no easy way to describe the plot. I quickly realized I had throw expectations out the window. This is a fresh read and not predictable.I won't try to hash out the plot for you. I will say that this is a complex story and you need to be in for the long hall. The story bounces from one perspective to another. The perspectives have a common thread that quickly becomes evident. The pace picks up in the second half of the book as separate threads start to come together.One interesting thing: after I read, I would find myself thinking about the book and what I would do if in that world. I had to admit to myself that I would be right in the thick of the problem. Just as enmeshed as some of the characters. I have read many books that stayed with me, but it is usually the characters. In this book it is the plot that keeps popping up in my thoughts all day.This book was a welcome deviation from what I normally read. I will be reading the sequel.
