anon here >>8638140 is correct
it's just an empty pulp story with too much "oh man wouldn't it be cool if" fluff and prose that's far more garbled than stylish.

I quite enjoyed the book but you do have very good handle on its flaws there. The next two books and his Trilogy moved further away from that style of overly purple prose and singular narrator and I found they suffered for it. The overwhelming nature of the pros did make me feel as though I was in a disorienting future.

I distinctly remember the part where they go to Turkey being just a clusterfuck of words.
