"I really enjoyed this book, and am pretty excited for the next one in the series. yes, it had things in common with the matrix, and yes it had things in common with other sci-fi series, but overall it was creative. I really enjoyed the dialogue, and especially the narrator's cynical and clever commentary. Definitely worth it for the casual sci-fi reader"
