READ THE SILENT CORNER FIRST!!!
This book picked up right where the first left off. Jane Hawk is a smart, bad ass heroine. She astonished me at every move. The situation she has put herself in is quite a difficult one. The technological intrigue makes you wonder what is real and what is not in my own life. Who can really track us and to what extent. Human nanotechnology? This book really caught my attention and I can't wait for the next one!!

I made it about 100 pages in, then lost patience. The story began well enough, then got bogged down in planetary politics and industrial intrigue. Too many people are introduced, but the reader is given no reason to care about them. I probably would have enjoyed reading about the "replaced" character far more than the protagonist. Too bad--I adored Riva from [book:Mathemagics], and would love to read more in that universe, but otherwise it seems that Ball's work just isn't for me.

A bit of a personal eye-opener!
This isn’t my usual type of book at all, but I’m glad I read it - very entertaining and fast paced. It did require a bit of concentration with all of the intrigue, back story, twists and turns, but I think I ‘got it’ in the end! I can’t say as I’ve ever really read a book based on espionage before, but thanks to The Pigeonhole (again!) I tried it and I liked it.
