5.0 out of 5 stars I loved it!, December 8, 1997
By x97block2@wmich.edu (Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
I loved this book! Need I say more? Well, ok, if you really want me to, I guess I will. This book had brilliant description of surroundings that Aubry was in. And, as and avid martial artist, I loved the extensive descriptions of the hand-to-hand fight scenes and the warrior/fighter philosophy instilled by the teacher character of the story. A great book making the reader seem to be there as Aubry goes from fighter to warrior, in a metamorphosis that the reader hopes will keep Aubry alive until the end. I enjoyed it immensely.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book, but one writing flaw., August 8, 1997
By A Customer
I thought this book was a wonderful cyberpunk book. It had great action, vivid descriptions of the city and the life of the characters and bystanders. The taste of the cyberpunk genre was very strong and very real. The story and plot were just absolutely impeccable as well as interesting. However, I found one very irritating aspect about the writer's style. Every time Aubry gets into a fight the author becomes rediculously overengrossed in describing the exact methods of how the fight progresses. For a while I tried to envision how these fights were taking place while I was reading them, but the author's descriptions made that tedious and impossible. He overdescribed every hand-to-hand fight scene that took place in that book. If he had made those sections shorter and sweeter, this book might have gotten a "10."

5.0 out of 5 stars Great example of "Don't judge a book by its cover.", April 25, 2003
This review is from: Streetlethal (Paperback)
...because the COVER of the Ace Original 1983 paperback edition really doesn't do the book justice (it's crappy!). I thought I was going to be reading a P.O.S. pulp sci-fi for laughs, and ended up crying at the end, having read the whole book cover to cover in one sitting. If you're a sci-fi fan at all, you'll dig this one. It's great.

Funny how it's getting an average of five out of five stars from people who have read it, and yet it's out of print, and used copies are going for pennies.
