A review...

“Halting State” - Charles Stross

First Draft - this will change and evolve!

Good when it should have been great

The first thing I need to say in this review is that I actually rather liked this book. I think it's a good book, chock full of great ideas. That said, I also think it's a flawed book for various reasons. I don't think any of these should be enough to put anybody off reading it, but they did turn what I thought could have been a fantastic book into just a good one.
