Review of 'The last theorem' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

It is more apparent that this book has two authors than other collaborations I have read. I enjoyed the story of the Sri Lankan mathematician, and probably tolerated more math language than others would have. The back story of galactic aliens was interesting, but might have fit better in a few large chunks instead of being spread throughout. It was hard not to envision the small aliens as coming from Douglas Adams. Overall a decent collaboration and story.
