I've been a fan of lesser known science fiction for years. With my new Kindle in hand, I went looking for some and I thought the description of this book looked interesting. The titillating cover didn't hurt, either. I saw the warning about adult scenes, but I was kind of surprised how quickly the sex started. It got hot and heavy right in the sample pages. Initially, I thought the sex was somewhat gratuitous, but I realized it was necessary to indoctrinate Aneka (and the reader) into 33rd century life.The book is quite character driven, and the characters weren't as one-dimensional as I thought they would be from the sample - in fact they're quite complex in many cases, Aneka in particular. The plot was good and drew me in very quickly.I do have to say that there are some typos that probably should have been corrected. I'm American and maybe I don't quite get the British grammar, but there were a few places where the sentences felt really awkward. These did interrupt the flow of the narrative, but not enough to make me not recommend this book.All and all, I thought it was really good.
