Since I reviewed Neal Asher's fantastic and brash first novel Gridlinked over six years ago now, Asher has worked tirelessly to gather a huge and loyal readership. His main weapon this this campaign has been a string of consistently enjoyable and inventive novels, the latest of which is published in hardcover by Tor UK. Polity Agent again features Asher's mainstay protagonist, agent Cormac, and once again provides the reader with edge-of-one's-seat, high octane adventure. Pound for pound, there's nobody around right now who is better than Asher at this kind of thing. Recommended.
