Bravo, CT Phipps! This Cyberpunk Action Gritty Assassin Spy Novel (yes, multi/genre-sub-genre) is quite enthralling, with terrific narration! So glad I bought it on recommendation of friends! I expected it to be quirky fun, but not this darn good, did not want to put it down! Very fun (dark) read, with a bit of a sendup of assassin/spy novels, but really written in a verrry diff direction than James Bond (save the focus on external looks, prospective sexual partners.) 5-stars for enjoyment, 4-stars for literary merit, 4.5-Star -5star narration. Great thrill ride, new author (to me!) I eagerly grabbed the two follow-on books in an author’s giveaway. Had I not read it immediately after two deserved Hugo winners, may have given it 5 stars. (Whether I am eager to read/engrossed in the tale is how I code my ratings.) I want to read more in this series, and am eyeing the WereDeer books, and considering Supervillainy ones.
