A Wonderful Sequel

Revisiting the world co-created with Katharine Kerr, Mark Kreighbaum delivers a most stunning story. The story picks up where Palace left off and the pace does not stop untill the very end. The science is well blended with the fiction, giving a thoroughly developed story leaving the reader with a taste for more. Nothing more I can say other than this novel is simply supurb. Buy it now!

A brilliant sequel to a truly original story

It took me months to find this book. But it was worth the wait. To finally be able to read the conclusion to the whole Rico/Vida love story, the lengths the Lep terrorist Riva would go to to destroy Vida, and the whole swirling sci-fantasy world of Palace, was definitely a story worth waiting for.This book comes alive on every page, as the original did, and completes a well-written, intricately thought out story that grabs your attention and refuses to let go.And to top it all, a signed copy !!! Thanks, Mark.

Superb

I have to agree with all the other reviewers..... this is a stunning novel. In fact, I don't think I've ever found a sci-fi book so satisfying on every level. Plot, characters, setting.... all lovingly crafted, highly engaging, and utterly believable. It took me a long time to find it though... kept searching under Katharine Kerr when looking for a sequel! Also, I don't think it's ever been published in Britain, which is a great pity.

Intricate page turner with fantastic characters.

"Eyes of God" is a tightly woven, electrifying book that goes beyond the usual SciFi offerings. The author creates multi-dimensional characters navigating in intricate & harrowing situations. He has crafted societies with past/present/future dimensions which are not only entertaining forays into meta-thought, but challenging mental puzzles. One must have one's wits about them to absorb all this author has to offer. "Palace" was excellent, but this is even better.

The Map moves ... Zhu-i ... and we flow.

After waiting almost two years Mark Kreighbaum's book was finally available in Australia, much to my delight. What a blast! I finished it in one day, then went over my favourites bits to relish and adore the characters, structure and plot. Frankly, it was well worth the wait. Vida, Rico et al were very real. Mr Kreighbaum is on par with William Gibson. The story was alluring and exciting. His explanations of cyberspace and the Map mysteriously exciting, making me wish I had neural jackins and other glorious things that may free the mind and flow - The Map moves. It left me wanting more. I am, however, grateful that Mr Kreighbaum chose to explain the story in two books instead of a long drawn out saga which normally results in a frustrated reader. The book was spellbinding and enthralling. I cannot wait for his next one. Congratulations Mr Kreighbaum
