I wish I had read some of the reviews before stating this. It's a product of it's time, it has a anoying habit of changing point=of-view halfway though a paragraph, and you can tell it was written by a Gaijin.

Superb story.
FishermansEnemy finished reading Dark matter by Blake Crouch
Dark Matter is a science fiction thriller novel by American writer Blake Crouch, first published …
If you understand the many worlds theory of Quantum Mechanics then certain aspects of this book will annoy you. Also, Dark Matter is mentioned exactly once so I have no idea why he went for it as the title of the book. I was cooling off the story until the “twist” at about 70% which was genuinely interesting and unexpected. After it was established though I found the ending to be quite predictable, but satisfying nonetheless.

Everything is a simile. Everything. Couldn't get past the tedious writing.

The Wise Man's Fear - Review
4 stars
Content warning Very mild general description of the overall tone of the book
So this is the type of book I swore I would never read again - book two of ? in a series of ? and it's been a decade since this book was released, with no word on when book three will be out, and if that will actually finish the story. I can't fault the interesting way this story is told, and do want to see exactly where this story is going though, but I can't in good concience recommend this knowing you'll be left in the lurch. It also very suddenly got very horny at about the 50% mark, and pretty much stayed there for the next 500 pages.
