GODDAMNED LONG.

but very excellent.
i read it when i was like 15 or 16, but i reckon it'd be a good idea to try again now that i've been studying sociology/politics etc.

From dusty memory, my favourite characters were called Arkady and Nadia! And Nirgal. But everyone likes Nirgal. don't they?

Yeah, everyone likes Nirgal. Personally, I thought Coyote and Kasei were too cool.

Is it far out Sci-Fi (*cough*Star Wars*cough*) or is it like Firefly?  I may check it out either way, I just wanna check it out first.

It's more realistic, but it's good like Firefly was.

I may have to give it a look then.

Do it. It changed my life(really!), and I am writing a series based on it. For those who have read it, it is the story of an exiled Red saboteur.
