Review of 'Schismatrix Plus' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Gave up. Some really great situations and concepts but I have no idea what the hell the protagonist wants.

Transhumanist social sci-fi: satisfyingly inventive in environmental and physiological adaptations, with stories interested in the philosophical and political implications of a solar-system-wide diaspora. More Dune than Expanse, these remain largely aristocratic, plausible and complicated and regularly tinged with misogyny.
