I doubt that a devout Muslim would swear anything to Allah. Always found that line in the book as something that someone of the Islamic faith would not do

Thankfully my awesome local library has all of these books on Kindle to borrow, keeping me from buying them all in electronic format as I own the paperbacks. My friend Iori properly classified these books as cyberpunk rather than the SciFi urban fantasy genre.

Loved the part where Sandy ripped through town doing 350 kph on a crotch rocket. Finally an author that gives an AI proper talent for faster-than man riding and evading. Story gotten better looking forward to pissed off Sandy armed with military hardware bent on revenge.

Story is still clipping along at a good pace. I like how Sandy has reunited with one of her former platoon members. I also like how despite his training the new GI did not just jump immediately to join Sandy and defect from the League. The new GI did jump immediately into bed with Sandy though. Some good action, with a FIA group attempting to direct the coup of the Tanushan government.

Book is getting better, with some interesting action with a little politics thrown in for good measure. I like how the GIs refer to each other by their series number.

This has been a good read so far. It is not on the level of Heinlein's Friday, but I definitely see similarities. Sandy is not bisexual (at least hasn't tried yet) unlike Friday. Sandy was made as a weapon of war rather than as a clandestine courier like Friday. Still a good read. So far, not worthy of a second read or adding to the library.
