Summary
Reception
Reception was mixed, with Kirkus Reviews saying, "A premise that had a chance to be compelling is diffused by a momentum-killing willingness to digress. Hunter has done much better."[2] and The Oregonian calling it "a disappointment",[3] while Publishers Weekly gushed that a "solid characterization complements the tight, fast-moving plot." [4]

gollark: C is the way that it is because it's basically portable assembly designed for PDP-11s or something.
gollark: See, this would be much nicer in R U S T (praise).
gollark: BF interpreter using some sort of partly-on-disk key/value store by sharding memory into large chunks?
gollark: No idea, never came up for me.
