Customer Reviews

excellent second installment

Cruiser Dreams continues the story and concepts set out in Dream Dancer, following the crisis within the Kerrion family, as they attempt to reclaim control of their empire. The second volume does a really good job of developing Chaeron's character, and the relationship between him and Shebat. I think what I found really appealing is that you can see them change and mature as they adapt and react to their circumstances and decisions they make. Sponge travel and theory is explained more in depth. There is also a lot more here about the idea of cruiser sentience and individuality and the threats and opportunities this new technological evolution poses.

Sweet

Good story, well written. It is a further development of political intrigues introduced in Dream Dancer ... complex society ... good depictions of developing artificial conciousness(es).
