johnridleyThe Revolution Business by Charles Stross
★★★☆☆
Well, the storytelling is definitely getting better. I recently found out that this was supposed to be 3 books (author's intentions) and it was chopped to 6 due to the publisher's idea of "where the genre is right now." This explains why some of these endings are horrible. The odd numbered books just look like someone axed a book in the middle, because that's basically what happened.
Could have MAYBE gone to 4 stars on this one. Some parts merit it. 3.5 I guess, rounded down (3.4999?)
