Query: don't waste your time

Gentry really messed up a good franchise. Throws in a lot of mystical feminine feelings and fantasies.Way too much time wasted discussing the protagonist's and her children's relationships. I really don't need a description of an episiotomy and bad sex in a SciFi story and certainly not polluting Clarke's name. I wound up skipping whole pages at a time hoping to get to some resolution to Clarke's original vision but the last pages just left you hanging with no desire to read yet another sequel. vapid and pointless.I actually thought Gentry Lee was a woman from the writing style and gender of the protagonist but when I looked the author up to see what other books he/she wrote I found it was actually an old dude writing as a woman. That is just flat out creepy. I do not recommend any books by this author.
