If I have read this before, I don't remember it. The action stuff is just action stuff. The computer stuff is silly, with a poor attempt to justify what looks like something written for cinema. The romance stuff is obvious. The villains make foolish mistakes. The heros don't seem to follow up some clues properly, yet manage astonishing CSI-type stuff later on.

I certainly won't be getting any of the others in the series. Poor.

F&SF, October/November 2005. Part of a backlog of issue I picked up in a fictionwise sale.
