Welcome to DevTown.
In this city, holo ads lumber like neon giants seeking advertising targets. Men and women pop Oracle tabs in search of relief or enlightenment or both. Creatures of unknown origin stalk the darkest alleys. In the center of it all, NexDev Tower looms over the city, home to hundreds of floors of top-secret research.
And in its shadow, Shan Hayes kills people for money...
Rejecting the mechanical enhancements so popular in DevTown, Shan needs only two things: The resynth serum that can reshape her body's entire cellular structure, and her hand-cannon containing a sentient parasite capable of converting her blood into weaponized wasps.
As a hired gun for various crime syndicates, there's little of the city's underbelly Shan hasn't encountered. But when a longtime business associate hires her to track down an underling who's vanished into the neon night, Shan finds DevTown still holds secrets more deadly and terrifying than anything she could imagine.
An interesting book that sucks you into the story right
away. This was not what I expected it to be. The cyberpunk genre is not
something I can even give an intelligent definition of. However, Taylor Hohulin
creates some interesting characters. Characters in a story full of mystery and
action. Characters strong enough to keep you reading.
My favorite character, Shan Hayes, is a killer for hire. She’s
tough and practical. Actually in this town she doesn’t care if it’s a criminal
needing a criminal killed, whomever. It’s just a job. Well, at first at least.
There are some real sci-fi things here. Many are changes
people speak of often. Not something
made up so much as real possibilities that could exist in the future. To me
that’s what the real Science Fiction genre is.
Taylor Hohulin has many books published with great reviews.
