Wolfe has written a spell binding masterpiece. It's a believable tale about a cyborg future we could easily go towards. I enjoyed the characters and the plot development. I look forward the the sequel.

This is a story set in a rather dystopian future almost totally ruled by corrupt and ruthless corporations. Ravenhawk is the main person, and when we first meet her, she is this intensely feared murderously humanoid android belonging to a one of those rather evil corporations.

She manages to escape, and while being hunted, she meets people from outside the corporation and while doing so, she manage to discover a new and more human sides of herself.
