Title: Long on ideas; short on consistency; confused & poor style
Review: Many of the ideas here are fascinating, but unfortunately I found the world depicted to be an inconsistent melange of future tech: nanotech and VR and non-Euclidean geometries and genetic engineering and ...Chunks of heavy-handed satire stick out like sore digits, adding to the feelings of inconsistency.What was most annoying was the overuse of the trademark symbol, formulaic references to National Geographic, and the description of Tiffany as "copy-protected"; products of laziness, or perhaps the author's prolonged enjoyment of jokes which tired very quickly.
