Rating: 4
Summary: Very good SF/Cyerpunk
Comment: Does Dietz ever write anything not worth reading? Not yet. His story lines are solid and his characters are alive. If he had added a bit more detail to the technology and given just a little more thought to the ending, Wow! Mr. Dietz give us more!

Rating: 4
Summary: Anarchy and religious zealotry do NOT mix
Comment: Harley Doon is an android trying to survive the colapse of the civilization that he belongs to. He cares nothing about much of anything. The colony that was established on Zuul is rapidly failing because if an environmental collapse.

Harley gets caught up in a quest to save the planet. He is not happy about it. He is forced into a situation where he has to cart a program from a his new arm into the wilds of an unsafe veldt.

The premise and the execution of this book almost work. The characters are REALLY well done. The motivations and reasoning make perfect sense. The ideas are novel. The only flaw is that the war sequence was unneeded. It has been a long time since I have read a better treatment of "The World Needs Saving" scenerio.

Rating: 4
Summary: Good Sci Fi
Comment: "Steel Heart" has a very strong setting, in-depth use of characterzation, and a solid story. Unlike the reader from CT, I liked the level detail provided for the minor characters. The only drawback is that the ending is somewhat rushed. "Steel Heart" is not quite as good as "legion of the Damned" and "The Final Battle", but it is still a good read.
