A better-than-average blend of the detective genre and hard SF. A few loose ends here and there, but an enjoyable read with enough interesting ideas and science to compel one to finish the story...and in a fairly short time.

Another airplane/airport novel. Sort of action adventure meets Iain Banks Culture. Interesting and entertaining, but not a keeper.

Great story, lots of action. Seemed like he wrapped things up a little two quickly at the end and I'm not entirely sure of a few details, but still a great read.

This book did not live up to my expectations. The characterizations seemed weak and the plot suffered from too many unlikely events. The climax built up nicely but fizzled out in the end. I may give Mr. Asher another chance, but not right away.
