      From: noone@nowhere.com              There is No Antimemetics Division by qntm.              (qntm has a real name which is Sam Hughes.)              In its concept, this was fascinating, but turned into a bit of a horror       story despite the imaginative ideas and non standard presentation, a       variety of connected reports and short stories.       A "bit" of a horror story as there was no tension and the characters       were similar shades of plastic. And the antimeme premise was perhaps       extreme. Five stars for the concept but I was disappointed so Three       stars or maybe Two.       I read this as it featured in the London newspaper, The Guardian, as one       of the five best SF novels from 2025. Touted as The Laundry Files on       steroids. so it may appeal more to Stross fans.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
