I did not expect much from this one since I've found the rest of the series to be just "OK" books but this one exceeded my expectations by miles. The storyline from the last book was nicely included and woven into the events of this one, Kovacs background got more explored and it all tied rather nicely together in the end. I am rather sad that this is the last of the series since the epilogue does leave to wonder what is going to happen next even though it is, hypothetically, answered.

I really liked the idea of Takeshi hunting himself, in fact that is something I wanted to see from start, with switches of both perspectives, which tasked the reader to figure out what happened here. Alas, that is probably really difficult and annoying to read. ;) I am not exactly sure about this book, this whole revenge theme with those fanatics is a bit off character for me, but maybe that is the result of the resleeving. Overall the story is again fast paced and has lots of surprises and some tidbits of explanation at the end.
