Oh indeed. Not stopping myself. Just wish he would have included that bit of world building into the background instead of slapping us upside the face with it. Had this been a paperback novel, that rant would have gone on for at least five pages, which would have been inexcusable.
Seriously, crap like that puts me in mind of a book I had to put down once, Growing Up Weightless... Other people loved it, but I didn't - something along the lines of if I wanted to read about Robin Hood I would have picked up a book about that, and not a book about coming-of-age on a lunar colony.
