Well-written, but much too long in my opinion. It definitely wasn't what I expected, and not in a good way. I enjoyed the first section, where all of the characters (too many, honestly) were introduced, but most of the rest was a bit of a letdown with several good bits tucked in. I was intrigued by some of the nature parts and disappointed by others. Honestly, it wasn't as much nature as I was expecting, but I am going to look up some facts to find out what is true and what is not in this book. It definitely got me thinking a bit, so that's good.

The audiobook narrator is excellent.
