Great fun

Very fun modern hard-sci-fi page turner. Both optimistic and dismal outlook of the near future with modern archetypes and bold predictions. Many typos in this edition, but nothing distracting (I will say here: the acronym PK stands for "United Nations Peacekeeper" - it is used often, but it's first use is separated from its meaning by like 7 chapters). I appreciate that it is self published, since I have been increasingly blindly picking up books from legacy publishers that offer little more than clearly, purely astroturfed acclaim (read: false reviews). It was also a great breath of fresh air to explore *critically relevant* themes which are wholly absent from anything printed by said publishers. Looking forward to the conclusion!
