This was solid -- Heinlein-esque worldbuilding+anti-government sentiment, but with less misogyny. Good AI character. Lots of individual storylines that make a satisfying click as they collide. They didn't bother with a proper ending and should've just merged it with the sequel. A little dated; people have cell phones etc but the speech and behavior patterns are very 30+ years ago.
