Query: Toooooooo loooooooooooooong

Way too long. The story Bear tells is just not worth telling at such great length. It starts out as a scientific mystery and devolves into a soap opera. I never liked any of the characters enough to want to spend so much time with them. I only finished the book because I wanted to learn the answer to the evolutionary mystery, but the payoff was disappointing.
