    About this ebook

    Devastated by her husband’s death, Earth-based biologist Yoshiko Sunadomari journeys to the paradise world of Fulgar to see her estranged son in the hope of bridging the gulf between them. But Tetsuo is in trouble. His expertise in mu-space technology and family links with the mysterious Pilots have ensured his survival — so far. Now he’s in way over his head — unwittingly caught up in a conspiracy of illegal tech-trafficking and corruption, and in the sinister machinations of one of Fulgar’s ruling elite: the charismatic Luculentus, Rafael Garcia de la Vega. When his home is attacked, Tetsuo flees to the planet’s unterraformed wastes, home to society’s outcasts and eco-terrorists. So Yoshiko arrives on Fulgar to discover Tetsuo gone ... and wanted for murder. Ill at ease in this strange, stratified new world seething with social and political unrest but desperate to find her son and clear his name, she embarks on a course of action that will bring her face to face with the awesome, malevolent mind of Rafael.

    • 4/5
      The partially-terraformed world of Fulgar is ruled by the transhuman Luculenti, cognition-enhanced aristocrats reminiscent of those in Walter Jon Williams’ Aristoi. Sunadomari Tetsuo is an expert hacker who has recently been upraised to Luculentus status, and has to go into hiding after discovering the wrong information— just when his mother, Sunadomari Yoshiko, is due for a visit. As Tetsuo stays away from his pursuers and Yoshiko attempts to find out what happened to him, they both uncover corruption among the Luculenti and the trail of a transhuman serial killer.Meaney has a well-visualized far future; he has a background in both physics and computer science (as do I), and I find the science in his fiction good. The story builds up to quite the page-turner; it kept me up late last night. There were some rough edges here and there where some pieces didn’t quite fit together, but all in all this is a good first novel.
