Product Description

Review

"Modesitt has outdone himself in this highly original science fiction novel... The brilliant novel is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining." - Publishers Weekly."


Product Description

Four centuries in the future, nanomachines watch the health of the wealthy and manufacture food and gadgets for everyone, but social problems persist. A singing teacher suffers for her music and fights bureaucracy and apathy. A news researcher can't help wondering about the real story behind the grim incidents that make the headlines. A police investigator, assigned to study trends, begins to see a truly sinister pattern in a series of seemingly unrelated crimes and deaths. A politician pursues his agenda, aids his constituents, fights the good fight and tries to get re-elected without compromising his principles. A ruthless businessman pursues his goal of making his family powerful, wealthy, and independent. Their disparate stories overlap, interweave, combine, and build into a tour de force of storytelling.

4.0 out of 5 stars gripping, 28 Jun 2003
By ru (london) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Archform: Beauty (Paperback)
this book is a real page-turner. it starts quite slowly, but lures you in and builds up to a very exciting climax. the technology is insteresting and well realised, and like all the best sci-fi there are some hard lessons about the way our society could go.
one other thing, though; why such a weak title? i think a stronger one would have caught the eye of more readers, and this book deserves to be read.
