All That We See or Seem (Julia Z, #1)All That We See or Seem by Ken Liu
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I'm actually a pretty big fan of Ken Liu, but to be honest, this is pretty much an average technothriller that has some promise. Hacking, real-life restraints, panopticon sensibilities. Personal AIs everywhere, and baddies making use of everything, just like the government.

Which, I should note, is no longer SF anymore.

Things are changing faster all the time now. But this book? It IS trying to keep up. For that, I appreciate it. The plot and mystery and resolution was pretty fun, too. Not brilliant, but definitely serviceable.
