Summary:
In Walter Jon Williams’ vintage cyberpunk book, the remnants of a war-ravaged America withstand in dispersed, heavily armed colonies, while the wealthy Orbital Companies now control the world. Cowboy, an ex-fighter pilot who is becoming “hardwired” via skull sockets right to his lethal electronic hardware, is now a panzerboy, a hi-tech smuggler operating armored hovertanks through the balkanized countryside. He groups up with Sarah, an equally cyborized gun-for-hire, to make a last stab at self-reliance from the rapacious Orbitals. Jointly, they gather an unlikely gang of misfits for a ride that may take them to the edge from the atmosphere.
This action-packed adventure is a must-read for science fiction fans everywhere.
