It's an fascinating literary adventure; in equal proportions, a science fiction in which the reader is transported into very unfamiliar futures, for example, some characters are digitised/holograms and have crowdsourced like intelligence, and, a film-noir style detective novel in which the reader is searching for clues, just like the protagonist 'Power'. Easily the most important novel this century with its adventures in identity, technology, and time. Strangeways definines a new literary genre: decentralised science fiction.
