The first chapter is utterly uninspiring. I almost put the novel down due to the cheesiness of the cyberspaceness of it.

Well thank goodness I didn’t. This novel was eye opening as a treatise on small and large scale mortality. One of the most thought provoking pieces of science fiction out there.
