Query: Good Book, Bad Star Wars

Greg Bear is an excellent author, and I have enjoyed several of his books. On the whole, this is a good novel, but Star Wars it is not. Star Wars movies and books are supposed to be action packed and exciting Space Opera, not hard sci-fi. This one, while interesting, is neither exciting nor action packed. It hammers plot developments into your head without the proper action framework to keep you interested. While I am sick to death of every Star Wars novel involving some super weapon or new menace to the Republic, I was disappointed with this effort at doing something different.
