First thing is art - truly great. Level of details, panoramas of the LA and Tokyo areas .... they are just beautiful. Assault scene, ambush on Led Dent in Tokyo, it is not just event on small piece of land, it moves across the shore of the river and then moves over the waterfall to the rocky coast below where blades flicker from every direction cutting everyone, our heroes and assailants. Entire look and feel is epic, cinematic.
Story wise book also holds its own. We are shown near future where LA is broken into smaller Islands after the world level catastrophe (rest of the world is also changed, it seems like every nation is controlled by its own warlord). Everywhere technology rules and people have lost their jobs because there is no need to work anymore. To keep them busy with something, nations have given their populace to indulge in sensory overloads - idiotic shows, sex overload, murders, mayhem, destruction, bullying, just think Clockwork Orange to the Nth degree, but with government encouraging such behavior. And to keep people even more under control they are given Juice, nanite machines that put people even more under the influence of media and general sensory stimulation. To enforce the rule new order is created, Constables, humans enhanced by the nanites, grown up in size and muscle but basically made zombies and almost terminally addicted to juice, executing people without even being aware of what they do.
So when two constables, Led who is under full spell of Juice, and Debby, Led's lover truly devoted to him but not a Juice user )only one in the force), are sent to Japan to prepare ground for the invasion it is tragedy in making. Sent by the LA warlord Flak, they will try to find the refuge in Japan (since it is protected from the technological invasion). Unfortunately Flak is not that trusting and he causes Led to fall back and ...... lets say it ends with a heart break.
Cybernetic implants, people going crazy from the use of the nanites and changes done to their bodies, murderous - no, maniacal - cyborgs, ordinary people mowed down without any thought - dystopia in its fullest.
Excellent book , highly recommended.… (mere)
