Reseñas de la Crítica

"Rusch has done it again....[An] excellent novel." (SFRevu)

"Top 10 Greatest Science Fiction Detective Novels of all Time." (io9.com)

"Here's Rusch's genius: She doesn't confine herself to the rules of any one genre. She does world-creation and social criticism like the best sci-fi writers; she creates crime stories that would be best episodes on Law & Order or CSI; and she creates stories of human relationships that rank her with the finest character writers working today." (Orson Scott Card)

Another great story in the series, but with technical errors

Great except that the chapter found in the audio contradicts the chapter count in the app. Hard to tell if I missed material.

Better than usual.

I enjoy the RA books, but don't think of them as particularly special. Certainly fine entertainment with interesting enough ideas. However, this one seemed to push a bit out of the normal comfort zone, and I enjoyed it more.

The best so far

Good action, good suspense. Learned more about the alien Disti(?) and their rites. Enjoyed the interplay between protagonists.

These need 3.5 stars not four

These are detective stories in space. No great strain on the brain matter and some gaping holes in the plot. I felt that I made a mistake buying the entire set after the first one thinking that the author was going to build on that story. She didn't really, The characters continue on with a series of detective stories that are not especially thrilling. I listened to them all and cannot say that I was inspired, but I enjoyed them for what they were, fairly bland. I wish we had 1/2 stars, these books only deserve three and half, the four is misleading but three would have been too low.

Best in the series

Ms. Rusch's 4th effort, and as with book 3, we finally get to see some of what Flint's new career is all about.

The plot works better than any of the previous 3, definitely the best in the series.

Jay Snyder once again delivers an out-of-this-world performance.
