The only Vinge I’ve read is “A Fire Upon The Deep” and I found it so so. Has anybody read “Rainbow’s End”?

I read it a few months ago. I rate it as O.K., somewhat disappointing, considering what I've heard.

It's a story of an unfolding conspiracy going on as the world is at the cusp of the birthing of the singularity, or super-artificial intelligence. The characters and plot line in the book are hokey and juvenile in my opinion.

We liked both Vernor Vinge’s “Fire Upon the Deep” and “A Deepness in the Sky”. I’d like to read “Rainbow’s End”

Yes. Worth reading. It's not a space opera like "Fire" or "Deepness in the Sky" (prequel, sort of, to FUTD. This is also one you should read.).

I thought "A Deepness in The Sky" was much better than "A Fire Upon the Deep" - but I haven't read "Rainbow's End" yet.
