Had a lot of the vibe from Bad Monkeys, but with a video game setting. Enjoyed it. Had some good spins on identity politics, but in that same pleasant way that _Long Journey_ did. It's really what sci-fi does best. I also loved the slight references to near-future things; that was nicely done.

Pretty good. Collection if vignettes that get tied together with an overarching story. Fun, creepy in parts, but lacks some of the charm and wit of his other books.
