- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I'm sure that this book had a coherent narrative in the author's mind but that narrative failed to make it to paper. One more tale of an interesting concept suffering from poor execution and a rather generic man vs machine plot.What the book lacks in originality of expression, it makes up for in so many diversions and excursions that would make even Philip Jose Farmer look up from his bong long enough to frown.
