I really did enjoy this story of an older ex-soldier who happens to be female (yeah for characters that are characters first and gendered second). She's Jenny Casey, a former Canadian Special Forces warrior. It's 2062 and she's hammering on the door of 50, her body is giving her a lot of pain and she's starting to have more flashbacks than is comfortable. She's reluctant to get involved with the Canadian Government again but her life is on the line.
I did really enjoy this one, yes there were some flaws and some bits that dragged a little but it is a first novel. I do read her blog on LiveJournal and enjoy it too, which is part of the reason I picked this one up. I would recommend it to people who like people based SF not battle based SF.
This story is about Jenny, her life, loves, family, issues and friends. It's about a future that's just believable and just beyond tomorrow. Definitely a keeper!
