This book found me while I was browsing through used sci-fi paperbacks and I bought it for two reasons. The first was that the cover treatment reminded me of Snow Crash thus endearing itself to me by association. The second is that I have particular interest in science fiction by women, since that's what my first novel will classify as, should I ever finish it. Like most sci-fi by women, there isn't enough action or technology; gender roles are explored through interpersonal relationships, and the setting is one of post-collapse reversion to a less technological society. This did little to impress me (see obsession with cyber punk). However, I am unexpectedly engaged with the story - I accidentally left my book at home yesterday, and found myself disappointed not to get to read it. So it's definitely not a total wash. Jury's still out on whether I can wholeheartedly recommend this or not.
