Title: Should have been a short story
Review: Yes, yes, I know...this was based off a series of short stories. Unfortunately it should have stayed that way. The writer, IMHO, tries to be too clever by simply throwing as many concepts as he can at you and "seeing what sticks to the wall" so-to-speak. For true, post-singularity reading joy, I'd recommend the Culture series of novels by Iain M. Banks.
