Exact science, is not an exact science.
Fair enough, science fiction is tricky, they played it safe with Bear, he is no Alastair Reynolds!! The book suffered for its pre-amble and the concept was lofty at best, far to prosaic and mumbled to be a winner in my mind.
I have no real concept of the Forerunners to be honest I think a far better idea would have been to publish a book of the Architecture and bury some candid shots of a civilisation in ruins, and drive the narative with diary excerpts and so on....but that would be an original idea
Keep the mystery alive and so on!!
