The first half of this book (chapters 1-20) is terribly uninteresting. The speed of the progression of the plot increases afterwards. This book is not a good read because it is too long, and the beginning is drawn out. In general, the book is poorly written. Cooper constantly switches between narrative and chapter-long description. If possible, I suggest you avoid choosing this book for research papers, essays, etc.
