Query: First time reader not impressed.

I got an advance reading copy of this book and began reading it almost immidiately; I had never read his work but had heard wonderful things about him. I was pretty disappointed but stuck with it all the way through as sometimes books tend to pick up at the end. But despite the occasional interesting couple of 2-page chapters, this book was a chore to finish and I'm a big fan of sci-fi; i got it a month before it was released and didn't finish it until long after it was on the shelves. With this being my first impression of James Patterson, I won't be jumping to read any of his others in the near future.
