Cyborg woman must find her lover Zal (who is a demon?) …complicated story line If nothing else I can second the comments the other reviewers of this novel have made. As for myself, I think this work suffers from middle-of-the series fatigue, as it starts to sag under the weight of Robson's elaborate cosmology. The deep melancholy that Lila Black displays in the first third of the book is a reasonable expression of where the story has been, but it also doesn't mean that it's anything pleasant to read. Still, the novel ends on a strong note and makes me look forward to reading the final book of the series. Well that was a ride. Lila Black is a cyborg, one of the few that have survived the process. Elves had magic-scarred her and the humans building her into a half-robot didn't quite go as planned. It's 50 years since she was last around but no time has passed for her and she has to get used to her sword/pen and dress/whatever it's being today. She's missing Zal, and has to try to rescue Teazle, the heir to Demonia and strangeness is cascading. Well it's a book you'd really have to know what's going on around it. I found it a bit confusing to try to remember what was going on with a lot of the characters and what were their issues. However by the end I really wanted to know how the series is going to end. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Lila Black returns in the fourth volume of high-octane, high-magic, high-tech adventures. For ten years now mankind has lived in Otopia - our world, but our world changed. Ever since the Quantum Bomb our dimension and realms of faerie, demonia, of the elementals and of death have been intermingled. We live alongside creatures from our myths, dreams and nightmares. Lila Black, half-robot, all attitude works for Otopia's secret service. In love with a half-elf, half demon, and carrying the spirit of another elf inside her, her life is quite complicated enough already. But other complications, other loves, other fears, other deaths wait just around the next dimensional corner. This is bright, fast moving and accessible SF that mixes in fantasy and a cool cult-lit sensibility to create a series that will appeal to all fans of Laurrell K. Hamilton and Peter Hamilton alike.
