Style to spare and some great lines and descriptions that almost knocked me off my feet -- at one point he mentions a block of buildings that put one in mind of computer punch cards. I mean, that's a way with words right there.
The story's great and the vibe is cool baby cool, but I had a problem following the timeline and the narrative. It was like a stream of consciousness that included dreams and memories. I felt tossed around and lost my footing several times...and I had to just give up trying to remember who was who and what was happening when and just plow on through. For a book this slim, it's kind of a feat for the author to let his readers get all turned around in its pages.
