Date: 2008-06-24 04:49 pm (UTC)Very odd book, though I liked it. It's a ghost story, and a science fiction story. I expected to find out at the end that the ghost had been created in some way by the sf element, but not so much. (And without the ghost, I'd never have had cause to suspect any supernatural elements in the SF portion, which given the magic-tech involved was straight SF.) The whole thing reminded me of Clifford Simak's stuff, particularly A Choice of Gods.
