The sequel to Nexus. Which I didn’t like very much. It does some things well: the ideas, the Fear of an Autocratic America, etc. Some things go less well: the story is playful and fun and there are some really weird things going on with the female characters. I also keep having this niggling suspicion that its sibling is much less the good bad film Enemy Mine but the atrocious Atlas Shrugged. It’s just the barest bones of a story strung together with the intention to advocate one sociopolitical goal. Rather disturbing, even if you agree with its transhumanist goals.
