Title: Running Low
Product review: Simple. That's the way he writes. Tommy Talon and his fellows (Troll sam, Orc merc, female decker, female rigger, every character a real surprise) are here again, like always needing the help of full-scale, worldwide important events to keep their story going (and the reader reading - not an easy task). Every conversation is short, simple, and archetypical. If you read SR novels to get a feeling for the SR universe, you will find nothing in THE BURNING TIME you haven't read a hundred times before. Even worse, the text on the back cover lures you into believing that there has finally come an end to Talon and company. Not quite true. Kenson tries to write good SR fiction, but it's not enough. To understand this, compare two scenes (Kenson, Crossroads, and Nigel Findley, 2XS) about a man, coming home and facing a woman threatening him with a gun. You'll see the difference.
