I did really like this, but it is a bit generic.

The audio book is fantastically done and it's written well enough. Characters are fleshed out and interesting, the universe makes sense.

Again: I really enjoyed it I just don't think it really put anything new on the table.

Edit: wanted expand on both the good and bad, no spoilers.

The plot is nifty enough but you could guess it from start to finish with like 2 cues (and you get those pretty early). There's really nothing challenging there we haven't seen before.

That being it said plays out well. The "big" plot elements you'll see coming but the little things and character reactions are why I say it's well written. I may have seen this movie a bunch but I liked watching these characters do it.
