I really enjoyed this book very much. It's one of the best Scifi's I've read in a long time. Written in the late 90's, I was surprised at how much of it rang true for most of our present time. This book concerned a great story about AI's, the internet, space and settled planets, prejudice and bigotry. It was humorous in parts and very exciting. This story sucks you in. I was very impressed with Zettel's charactor development, you get attached very quickly. I enjoyed this space adventure very much and I highly recommend it. A very good read!

It is so rare to have women as the main characters in Science Fiction. Sarah Zettel does an amazing job at taking the reader on twists and turns throughout the story. This was my first introduction to her writing and I can't get enough! Another good Sci Fi from her is "Playing God." Again, well written, strong female characters.

While I liked this book, it was a very slow read. I had trouble staying with it for the first 200 pages.
