I would describe leisure reading as precious free time spent taking a chance on a writer's ability to satisfy certain literary needs. After taking in three/ four hundred pages a commited enthusiast should be rewarded with a suitable climax, only fair. Of course these parameters are very subjective.
As someone with a computer background I found the story a modest return on investment. Only because the ending seemed too timid, conventional .
A wordy way of saying that I don't want to give away the ending. The characters, theme, and the author's writing style kept the story interesting.
