A review by hank
On the Steel Breeze by Alastair Reynolds

3.0

Disappointing. I like the world Reynolds has created but there wasn't much to this book. Same AI vs human themes with some mostly dull twists. Some fairly unbelievable politics amongst a caravan of arc ships. Everyone (bad guys) seems to go from annoying to truly evil in a heart beat. Chiku (yellow and green) come off as petulant children most of the time, whining about why other people won't help them. They get several killed, alienate family members and generally are a destabilizing, non problem solving force.

Definitely will not read the next one.
