Do yourself a favor and read this book if you like near-future SF. Or be like me and listen to it, since the narration is fantastic! The jumps in chronology are used effectively here--and I say that as someone who generally doesn't care for those--an ...more

Just as fun and fantastic as the first book in the series. And best of all, it has a natural break-point, so I can pause here to read other things before diving back into the series for more hammer fun

fun but a bit long-winded in places. I was hoping it would at least be a contained story at the end of book 1, but nope. It just...stops, though the story goes on. So, while I like it, I'm not sure I LOVE it enough to dive into a long series just now ...more
