Resurrection Inc. (Kevin J. Anderson)

For some time, I was posting my mini-reviews on Pownce, which seemed to suit the short format . I’ve mostly switched to using Twitter instead of Pownce now, but 140 characters is a bit too short. I don’t really want to create a new account somewhere else, so I guess they can go here for now. Maybe I’ll start using one of the ’library’ sites at some point, and switch to there, or maybe I’ll get my Delicious Library -> web system a bit more automated again and integrate it there somehow. So, since it’s been a while, there’s a bit of a backlog. Firstly, Resurrection Inc., by Kevin K. Anderson. I mostly bought this because I recognised the name from ISBW. It was reasonably enjoyable, but nothing spectacular. A lot of sci-fi deals with immortality, and this didn’t seem to introduce anything particularly new or compelling. I liked the first half more than the second - it didn’t end up going where it seemed like it would. I think partly that I don’t have a huge liking for stories about such dreary futures, where humanity are essentially idiots. Overall, though, I liked it enough to read more Anderson in the future.
