Every once in a while, you start a book with some preconceptions. Most of the time we find our preconception justified. For this story, not so much. Was it predictable? A little bit, but that really isn't a negative for me in this case. The things I saw coming were things I that seemed logical to occur. Heck, for all I know, the author intended them to be anticipated. Regardless, the story was thoroughly ejoyable and a satisfying followup to the first story in this series, Shoot The Humans First.
I felt that Beck Black did a marvelous job of populating her story with a multitude of four dimensional characters. Not a one of them goes unchanged over the course of the story.
There is only one reason I would tell you to not read this story, and that is if you haven't read Shoot the Human First yet. They are complete stories on their own with different plots and points of view, but when read in order, make a more satisfying story arc.

Download it, it's free. Two stars for good, professional entertainment.
Remark: In my system, five stars is reserved for the most important SF of world literature, e.g. "1984" from George Orwell, and four stars for those I consider all-time best, for example Michael Crichton or some novels from Larry Niven.
This leaves three stars for most of really good Indie SF, but as everybody else at Smashworts does rate a SF novel at five stars if he liked it, I was detoriating the average rating of Smashwords authors I like best! So I decided to change my previous reviews, one by one, and repost them without the smashwords rating. Watch out for my rating in the review text instead!
