I didn't like this one at all.  I kept waiting for the story to start but there never seemed to be any “there” there.   It felt like mostly narration, no characters to care about, and the vague references to mysterious things were not explored enough to be interesting. 

I don't mind when authors throw in half-explained concepts such as boson guns somehow destroying the universe – when they do it in the context of an actual story.

Add me to the "Where's the Story?" camp on this one. The ending caught my mind wandering unsupervised...

Me too. This one was mainly technobabble to me. Which is interesting because I believe it had something in common with the previous story, the Water Man. But whereas I really enjoyed the latter, this one had me scratching me head. Too much went over my head. I'll have to look at the comments and get more up to speed.
