5.0 out of 5 stars Another epic rollercoaster ride of Science Fiction, 28 April 1999
By A Customer
I found this book to be science fiction as I like it. The sheer imagination and energy that was invested into the plot made it a joy to read. The characterisation and the detail given to the backdrop reminded me a lot of Ian M Banks' first SF novel 'Consider Phlebas' which is the ultimate benchmark by which I would judge this type of story. From the first page we are dropped easily into a cosmopolitan culture and given a lead character we can emphasise with before being picked up and carried along headlong for the ride. There are some cliches (the lead is a down at heel owner of an aging space freighter that may just have a dodgy past.. ) but the author has sufficient storytelling prowess to captivate the reader and the pace of the adventure carries all through to the finale. A fun read that is good enough to go back to.
