I always liked science based things and read this purely due to the Ebola theme. The science bits were well explained and the fact that this is a true story, yet reads as fiction, and could even happen again makes it a scarily good read.

A mediocre piece of science fiction
It’s starting to feel more and more like District 9 was a fluke on Neil Blomkamp’s part.

Meh. Much more romance than anything else. I like more weird in my fantasy, a whole lot more science in my science fiction. There's no reason at all this couldn't have been set in the modern day, and it fits the whole RWA formula to a tee.

I recently reread this book and can say that it was much more enjoyable the first time when my reading and viewing was steeped in science fiction. I still really enjoyed reading it and love the tongue-in-cheek nods to science fiction.

I also had a greater appreciation for the political satire this time around; Zaphod Beeblebrox especially stood out as being much more relevant to me at this point in time.
