pickStrong opening page/paragraph. Well, whatever, I liked it enough to read the book.
A titan was murdered and Cal investigates.
An interesting blend of genre and interesting world-building. Snarky MC, first person POV, villains with ethics and Sci-fi that makes sense.
pickIf you're looking for a sci fi twist on classic noir mystery (and maybe just a smidge less dark), I can highly recommend this one.
A very fast read, the world building dresses up the corners but doesn't let the narrative get bogged down in science talk, the dialogue is snappy, the writing - well, I'm starting to think I'm biased, but I really love the way Harkaway writes: 1/3
pick27/150 I didn't plan to go on a mystery binge, but my last 3 books have all been murder mysteries. Three very different worlds and types of stories. Here its gritty, detective noir, the gumshoe in a world of genetically altered supermen (and women). When a Titan is murdered, Cal Sounder is called in to investigate, which leads, as these things do, to a much larger conspiracy. I liked the gritty feel of this world

pickI had fun with this. Cal is a detective who is investigating a crime. Titans are the genetically enhanced elite.
This was a fun, fast, noir, PI story with humor & great dialog. The world, politics & premise were all interesting. I finished it in one sitting.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/4
pickI loved this. It has all the grit, dark humor, and violence of a Raymond Chandler novel or early 1940s Humphrey Bogart noir film, with a Sci-Fi twist to keep it fresh. The Sci-Fi element gave a different flavor to the mafia-esque characters, and a little more room for the author to play with the noir tropes. It‘s a fast read, well-plotted and executed, and highly entertaining. If you‘re a fan of classic noir, don‘t miss this one.
