I gave this a five placed in the context that for the type of book this is it is a very good read. No, this is not a classic like Melissa Scott's Trouble and her Friends, nor is it as good as Gibson's Neuromancer, but it is a very good light cyberpunk read.

I would say the reading level of this book is teen. Which isn't to say that adults cannot enjoy it, as I found the book fascinating and the action flew by very quickly. This is more of a summer book, a book to pleasantly pass a few hours.

Enjoy. I know I did...

If you are into the Cyberpunk theme than this book is not a bad read. Not as good as the classic Gibson books "Neuromancer","Count Zero" but still a good read

If you need to see a story set in the Cyberpunk 2.0.2.0 setting then this book seems to fit the bill rather well. While the politics in this book is dated we need freedom of expression and maybe the author is a left explotiationalist. I can see the teens now getting involved in left wing politics only to find the TV is their legislature much as I do as an adult. As far as computer fiction it fares well but remember it goes with a game. As the other reviewer I rate this book based on it's fitting into the context of the game cyberpunk 2.0.2.0 and not on literary standards. It is a cheap read yet at that it is a quick read too. BTW it is low on romance content and a little too full of violence content.
