A little rough around the edges, but it's easy to see why it won Nagata a Locus for Best First Novel back in the day. Classic cyberpunk tropes (though "nano-punk" might be more appropriate), but just a little more accessible in my opinion than some of the more highly touted examples of the sub-genre.

After what felt like a ludicrous amount of online research, I've determined that the prequel volume was originally published between the first two volumes of the Nanotech Succession series proper. And since I am nothing if not a published-order creature by compulsion... Tech-Heaven is up next.
