“She was designed to look human, her face the replica of a woman whose image Med’s tissue engineer had licensed from an old Facebook database.”
When I spotted this novel at my local Kinokuniya store, I
felt compelled to buy a copy. The premise sounded so intriguing. Unfortunately,
I found that the most exciting aspect of the book. Time and time again I’d pick
it up, read a few pages and then put it down.
The scene was set early for some interesting action and I looked forward initially to see how it panned out. By the time I was less than a third through, my interest had waned entirely. Perhaps this was due to my usual preoccupations inherent in a busy, stressful life distracting me from the plot. Perhaps it just wasn't my cup of tea. In any case, this review lacks effusive praise.
On a positive note, this is the one hundred and twentieth book I've read this year - hurrah!
2 out of 5 robot drugs aren't as exciting as they sound.
