The future might be a nearly unrecognizable place.
The world building was excellent. From the very first paragraph, I was completely immersed in the highly regimented and futuristic society that Detective Track lived in. His choices in life were controlled so much by the corporation he worked for that I wondered how he was ever going to find the opportunity to figure out what was really making some of the other people around him disappear. He didn’t have a lot of resources at his disposal, so that made every clue he found even more precious than it might have otherwise been.
I would have liked to see more time devoted to character development. While I got to know the main character pretty well, he didn’t change very much as a person from the first scene to the last one despite the fact that he had a lot of experiences that could have been the catalyst for all kinds of personal development for him. I wouldn’t have expected something as fast-paced and plot-oriented as this book to go into a great deal of detail about a character’s growth, but it would have been nice to see some of it to round out what was otherwise a very good read.
The technological advancements in this tale blew my mind. I was especially fascinated by how Detective Track’s society had adjusted to all of the robotic elements that had been added to it by this point. They lived in a time and place where medicine and engineering had figured out how to do all sorts of incredible things for even their poorest citizens. I truly enjoyed reading about all of the advancements that the author imagined might be commonplace in the future.
Missing Remnants should be read by anyone who enjoys the thought of a science fiction novel that has a lot of mystery elements in it.
