I enjoyed this story, although the end seemed a bit rushed, a bit confusing, and a bit annoying. I kept reading this with a sense of Déjà vu - in that I seemed to have read pieces of this story somewhere else. I'm not sure if its because the book is a derivative, pulling in a number of ideas from other authors, or if I had read this sometime, someplace, and totally forgot about it. The characters while solid, were interesting, but not captivating. The writing solid, but I won't be reading this again. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

IT'S A POST-ECOCAUST WORLD. WELCOME TO IT. In the San Jose of tomorrow, all of nature is gengineered--from the warm-blooded plants to the designer people. But even in a rigidly controlled biosystem, with its pheromone-induced social order, the American dream is still the American dream. Caught between these new-old worlds, Rigo is on his way up--he's going to be part of tomorrow, even if it means he has to leave today behind. Written off as a sellout on the streets of his old 'hood, Rigo's got his own ap in an aplex, a 9-to-5er, and a girl. He's got opportunity. If he works hard, his job with a heavyweight politicorp could give him a chance to move up in the clades. But when he's chosen as part of a team to construct a new colony on a nearby comet, Rigo smells a setup. And when disaster strikes, he learns that if there's a way to bend the rules, there's also a way to break them... Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

It really is appropriate to compare it to the works of early William Gibson, except now concentrating on and thoroughly exploring the development and uses of bio-chemistry, -computing and -encryption, and generally -engineering.
In short - The novelty of ideas did it for me. ( )
