review 1: What a great read! I went through it in one day. Liked both the main characters, and was pleasantly surprised how well the science fiction and romance elements were balanced. It got rather intense at times but I couldn't stop reading!The ending did feel rushed, even a little unfinished, so I'm crossing my fingers for a sequel. I think there's plenty more the author could tell us about these characters. :-)Oh, I also love the cover art. Is that beautiful or what?
review 2: I haven't read too many m/m sci-fi novels, but I like the combination of space stations, psychedelic drugs, and neural rewiring that Torrens features in this book. Qusay is a suitably vulnerable lost waif with an interesting mixture of bravado, sassiness and deep down, anger and frustrat... moreion. Cameron, the bounty hunter, is pretty much an every man but with that inner heroic need to protect and rescue. When he finds Qusay peddling on the streets with no memory of his past, he just has to dig into the mystery.I think one of my only nitpicks would be that though Cameron is supposedly a bounty hunter, not once did I get to see him actually doing anything related to his job. He might as well have been a captain or a merchant or a cop or pretty much anything. It's a small, nit, however. Overall the action and relationships carried me along, and I enjoyed it. The ending was quite thrilling.The plot took some interesting twists that made the reader question who a person really is when they remember two different lives. I like how Torrens played with this development and how it eventually resolved itself.Definitely recommend for those who love a good space opera. less
