I love this series, curses to the author for dying.

Sadness for the loss of so much potential.

    Excellent cyberpunk novel written prior to all the hoopla about cyberpunk. Gritty/grizzly and noir-ish, the main character is caught in an intricate web of deceit and double crosses.

    This is the first of three in a series. In many ways, it's the hardest to read of the three. It has brutally violent moments, and introduces a "dialect" that seems forced at times. The writing is incredibly evocative, creating a world that is something like an Arabic/Muslim Blade Runner (no skyscrapers or Asian culture).

    There were moments of brilliance, but there were also moments where it felt like Alexander McCall Smith was hired to ghost-write it.

    Very readable cyberpunk fiction. It took me some time to get into this book, but I was hooked by the end.
