Beyond the Hallowed Sky

Ken MacLeod will come up with a future in which a superpower polity implementing specific and particular kind of market socialism gets into a bunch of international intrigue involving space travel and maybe aliens, and then write a trilogy about it. Entertaining, if that's your sort of thing.

Good part one of a space opera trilogy complete with MacLeod's politics.

Enjoyable with several intriguing elements. Felt like a return to form, reminiscent of Cosmonaut's Keep.
