How do you engage an enemy that never sleeps, that sees through your eyes and hears through your ears, and relentlessly, honestly, only wants what’s best for you?

I have a policy of not reviewing books I don’t enjoy unless I have been specifically asked to review but hard to justify not giving at least some explanation in the awards. I have certain tastes as with any blogger but I do not have much love for hard SF tales that seem to sacrifice character for gritty dystopia. This book reminds me of M John Harrison but unfortunately, I’m not a fan of his work either.  Its very much the type of book I bounce hard off and this makes no exception.  Nothing for me to grab onto.  Sadly a firm last in the category so far.
