Review--Cloud Atlas


Cloud AtlasCloud Atlas by David Mitchell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I liked Cloud Atlas very much. The layering and intertwined tales left me awash with admiration for the author, and I'm sure this novel will be discussed for years to come. In the end, I couldn't give it five stars because I felt the resolution was too nebulous. Bringing it back to the beginning made a point about corruption and consequences, but I've been a science fiction reader for too long not to expect more.

Nonetheless, it's an excellent and engrossing novel and well deserving of the praise it's received.
