I'm about halfway through and stalled out around the extremely tedious chapter on how wormholes work, and I felt that the writer thinks his readers must be total braindead morons that he felt the need to explain it at such length while simultaneously mocking the entire genre of science fiction. It left a bad taste in my mouth. Does the book redeem itself later, or is it a lost cause?
Also the whole section on 'oooh this might all be a simulation oooh' is not, I think, the shocking mind-bending reveal he seems to think it is. The book was published in 2020 but I feel like I'm being presented with 'science fiction' concepts that were groundbreaking in like 1985.
