Prescient
Lyda's AngeLINK series was prescient when it was written. It features a world that has shifted to theocracy and implants that connect people directly to the internet. The world Morehouse has created is rich and thought provoking. The story is incredibly well told. Lyda is an incredible author!

Great book
Enjoyable read, entertaining deconstruction of western judeo-christian mythos in a cyberpunk dystopian future. Loved it when it was first published, loved rediscovering it as an ebook.
