I started this book before bed the other night.  I didn't plan on finishing it; I figured I'd read a few pages, get bored, and then try a different book. I love SciFi, but the term "cyberpunk" didn't sound like something I would like.  I was hugely surprised to find I LOVED this book from the very start.  I finished half and then had to get some sleep.  The next morning, the first thing I thought about was The Genehunter and when I'd have time to FINISH the book.  :)The main character Simms is a perfect, non-perfect hero.  He's flawed, he's sensitive, he's misguided, he's intelligent, he's pretty dumb when it comes to women. That makes him the perfect SciFi hero for me.  Lots of growth potential in this guy.The writing is exceptional.  Simon Kewin is a master of prose.  His writing felt effortless, simple yet literary fiction strong. I'm his newest fan.I will definitely read the rest of the series. Even if you don't like SciFi, try this book.  For me, the true genius is in the characters. Rooting for Simms kept me reading to the end.
