The Zenith Angle
Sterling, Bruce
Sterling tries his hand at a bridge between techno-thriller and social satire. Sometimes it works really well, other times not. I certainly raced through it; so it succeeds on the techno-thriller aspect quite well. On the social satire/social commentary, I think the results are more mixed. Some of it is very funny, some of it is very provocative. Overall, this struck me as a moderately successful experiment. Certainly worth the time and effort. But a bit short of what it promised it might be.
