I didn't really enjoy this book. The world-building was kinda interesting, but the whole this-is-an- alien-from-another-world-who-is-much-more-intelligent thing kinda fell flat for me.

There are several stories that are tied together by the characters and the setting, but otherwise they don't really have much to do with each other. 

I normally like Vernon Vinge. This one just didn't work for me.
