Ding Bat asked Gerald M. Kilby:

This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)[ Too many examples of lazy writing, I usually let them go if minor, but this was a real corker. Miranda is supposed to be the Step Daughter of one of the baddies, but only 1.5 books later, she is PROMOTED to daughter, and direct quote from page 573 of 764 in "Neural Attack" "Miranda, who had inherited both his and her mother's DNA, probably possessed an even longer potential lifespan" Has this been pointed out? (hide spoiler)]
