The premise is a standard trope, with a decent setting, but the author completely lacks any level of detail in his writing. Things progress very quickly, at an unrealistic pace, and it makes the story boring. At one point, he tasks someone with developing a piece of technology, and it seems like it's only days later that they are sending him more than 20 completed versions plus supplies for it. And it's super effective and works perfectly. He spent more time describing the body of a 12-yo when they went to take a hot spring bath than he did the development of said tech that changed the course of their history.Giving up on this one.
