I had a hard time downloading this book from NetGalley. The send to Kindle was rejected by Amazon and the download couldn't be opened by iPub or any of my other applications. I finally downloaded Adobe Digital Editions and was able to open the downloaded copy. I only read the first few chapter. I must say, it is a clever story, both intelligent and funny, but it was so difficult total seriously as a science fiction novel that I gave up after that. I may have been biased by my bad experience trying to download the book and I don't like the Adobe Digital format compared to either iPub or Kindle. I don't want to do the book a disservice, given its actually pretty funny, so I will give it a 2 instead of a 1
