"The sun is always just about to rise."

The book counts 576 pages. It is split in many chapters of several types:

• The main story itself, which follows Mercurial Swan Er Hong and Saturnine Fitz Wahram.
• Lists: KSR has been accused (or praised) of too many infodumps, here he takes that comment and runs with it with chapters that are just that, lists of things!
• Excerpts: Think of browsing through a scientific journal full of abstracts, only that you only concentrate on small snippets of text.
• Places: Bodies in the solar system that have been settled by humans.
• ...and another one that would be spoilerish to reveal here!

Many readers of the Mars trilogy will sometimes feel that 2312 takes the solar system of Blue Mars and runs wild with it!
