Query: I'm glad I only bought the first book.........

I'll make this as short as possible...........like I wish the book would have been. This read was easily twice as long as it needed to be. I got halfway through, and quit. It was so boring. I wanted, (as always), a good story, not a tedious dialog that goes on and on about every little detail involved in colonizing a planet. I can't believe this author is receiving accolades for this work. He can, in no way, be compared to any of the greats in the sci-fi field.
