An okay read
This book kind of let me down a little. It started out with a really cool premise. The dolphins and the IMIS system were really neat. I enjoyed that. The characters were okay. Their personalities were a little flat to me, but at least they weren't obnoxious. They were believable even if they were a little cliche. Where I felt let down was the story itself. It wasn't bad, but I always felt like something was missing. I also felt like it was just too neatly wrapped up in the end without a real explanation. Everything was just magically okay. It didn't feel likely or real for everything to work out the way it did. Despite those complaints, I think this author is someone to watch. He definitely had some really cool ideas here. Some original, and some not entirely original, but still interesting. I also found his writing to be really great for self-published. I think this book is worth the read, but I hope the next ones can get to where I feel this book didn't quite get.
