Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
This is the sequel to Greg Bear's popular Queen of Angels, and, like most of this award-winning author's works, it's a stunner. Bear is right at home with the computer and nano technologies that underlie his near-future society. With most of the world's ills having been cured by nanotech, humanity is free to turn its explorations inward, to the mind. Advanced therapies have all but eliminated emotional imbalance, and things have never been better. But when public defender Mary Cho begins investigating a double-murder, she uncovers the truth: all of the high tech is failing, and things will never be worse. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Science Fiction Age
This is Greg Bear's most intricate novel, and perhaps his most successful overall. It will be surprising if Slant does not get very serious consideration for the Hugo, Nebula, and other SF awards next year. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
