Though fairly new to SF I've read a lot of Benford over the last year. This book though enjoyable is not up to the standard of works like Timescape or Across the Sea of Suns. The plot is somewhat confused beginning with the sort 'War In Space' I associate with the chessy SF I knew in my teen years. Then it branches off into broader notions of cosmology first explored in the Galactic Centre series and mixes in a love triangle in which 2 of the parties are different representations of the same person A good read. If you enjoy Benford as I do, I think it's worthwhile
