Although fantasy is normally my thing, and I don't read a lot of science fiction, I really enjoyed this book. The way the story moves from scene to scene is slick and the author manages to keep up the roller-coaster pace while simultaneously providing vivid descriptions of the colourful and imaginative worlds he creates.The hero of the story is Manuel Corr, an officer in the Boston Police Sub-Net unit, specialising in visiting the dreams of criminals. While on a mission, Manuel realises that nothing is as it seems, and finds himself questioning whether there is anyone he can trust.The characters are all well written and three-dimensional, from Manuel to his love interest, Margarite to Dr. Cho, the eccentric scientist, to the evil Ace Carson AKA Azrael who is truly frightening and makes a brilliant villain.When I came to the end of this story I found myself wanting to read more, which is always a good sign. Hopefully it is the first of a series, because if it is I will certainly be reading the rest.
