These are themes familiar to just about anyone who's seen Blade Runner or read Neuromancer, and unfortunately the author takes for granted that's the case here. We're shown a detective, Musubi Susono, a series of child kidnappings, and before we're done we've moved on to the evolution of humanity into a cyber-system that alters Susono into something beyond what she was. If that's the case, then I wonder if it might have done better had Nihei stretched the story out a volume or two, as things seem to move much too rapidly for comfort. Taking it on surface level, it's a fairly straightforward cyberpunkish shooter that is supposed to stand alone, although set in the same universe as Nihei's other work. Not that it was a bad book, by any stretch, but there were elements of it that simply didn't make sense, and wouldn't make sense, unless you're familiar with the Blame! series.
Fans of the series will no doubt appreciate this book on a much deeper level than I did, and I hope they'll keep that in mind as I delve into this book. This is the long version of me saying that I have never read Tsutomu Nihei's Blame! series, so that will skew my review of the pre/sequel collection of stories called Noise.
