Review of 'Off Armageddon Reef' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

I enjoyed this book, but if you aren't ready for lots of information about sailing ships and a host of characters, you might not. The premise is a good excuse to have a future tech view of a society without complex machines and building up their technology. I wonder if the book might read better if you only read the chapters with Merlin.
