The Skinner by Neal AsherMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Great novel, one of Mr Asher's first books, and you can see from the beginning, that he was destine for greatness!
Its a wonder to me that such a complex world, based around science fiction, can manifest its self so easily from the writers mind.
Maybe I am being naive and the undertaken was just made to seem effortless! Never the less, 'The Skinner,' is a rich, fast passed, novel, that needs a smattering of patience to begin with.
If you posses that admiral attribute, then you will find yourself immersed within a world of super humans, mutated by a virus that heals, and turns the fragile flesh of mere homosapiens into Gods, the Captains of said pros become these near immortals.
If you have a taste for all powerful A.I's, War drones that no longer have a war to fight, and aliens that have a taste for human flesh, then look no further.
A resounding five stars!!!!!
