Sci-fi thriller with complex motivations and setting
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I read Steel Sky quickly, wanting to learn more about the bizarre (yet well-thought out and easy to imagine) world and complicated characters. The pacing is excellent, moving between different groups of characters, and revealing suprises and layers throughout. Although Steel Sky is bit more violent than my usual sci-fi fare, humor and a good buddy plotline lightened the mix. The author throws in some homegrown vocabulary, but it is self-explanatory and adds to the atmosphere rather than distracting from the plot. The book is complete and satisfying, but still want to know what happens next!
