Salvation

Не плохие идеи: телепорт. Прижимом для всего. Людей, машин и даже старых отходов, которые на границу солнечной планеты телепортируются. Заселение планет. Шлем корабль с порталом. Ждём пока долетит и перемещаем туда все что нужно! На земле практически не ездит транспорт. Дороги разобрали. Живешь в одном месте, работать можешь везде! У богатых Квартиры сделаны так, что комнаты находятся в разных места и при этом не тол ко Земли!!! И они так же легко туда порождают, как и обычные люди в их комроты проходя в дверном проеме. :)

All i was looking for was some decent fast food sci-fi and this still managed to massively disappoint. Hamilton gives us a universe that has: - infinite energy - infinite food - infinite (physical) ressources - instant (ftl) travel via portals to anywhere a portal has been placed Sounds like a proper utopia, right? Except that society is mostly a universal surveillance society ruled by corporate overlords and corrupt governments with zero rule of law. That could still be an interesting premise and kinda cyberpunk. The problem is that it all falls flat in the way it's presented and with how the story is structured. We get to read in excruciating detail about our protagonists and how they're willing to employ torture, kill, blackmail and threaten anyone that gets in the way of their goal, even if the goal is something as mundane as finding the boyfriend of a company ceo's daughter. Oh, and there's extra-legal 'rendition' too. Which everyone loves because it's so convenient. The cherry on top is that the YA future sections of the book call these guys the "saints". This all feels super tone-deaf to me and i didn't enjoy the backstories at all. If the hook sounds interesting to someone reading this story, but the going gets kinda rough, i'd recommend to just read the first and last two chapters of the book. Cuz the rest sucked.
