Title: Boring!
Review: I have enjoyed all books by Philip Kerr so far. But certainly not this one. Basically the idea may be good. But when you read the novel, you find that the characters are mere cartoon characters - they are not credible and shaped in the bizarre way that we know from computer games. The action, too, resembles the way through different levels in a computer dungeon rather than a virtual sf reality. And then, the action is so often interrupted by lengthy and boring scientific explanations, which, in addition, get more boring by scores of long and uninteresting footnotes. If you expect social criticism, you will not find it. Good science fiction always mirrors our problems in this world. This book does not. Let's hope for a better novel next time, Philip.
