The characters are just sloppy and not relatable, or even believable. As a third strike, quite a few characters do the exact same thing. Then he completely 360s his opinion and thinks the exact opposite of what he was dead set on for no apparent reason. In one instance, we have a character who shows up and is never explained very well. Also, a lot of those changes don't make sense. pretty much just say "Wow, I think I changed and here's how" but we never really see that change. We don't see the development slowly happening over time, or through actions. Some characters develop(not all), but they do so very artificially. All in all we have three main characters, and a handful of side characters. We'll start with characters, because they were almost as disappointing as the story itself. The concept this time is evolution, and boy did they mess this one up. The concept of immortality, reincarnation, lucid dreams, and basically any concepts that I, as a reader, find interesting. If you've read any of my reviews, you know that I put a lot of stock into story concepts.
