I really liked this book about a bleak future world where churches recruit with offers that are hard to refuse. Our hero tries to outsmart and stay ahead of many pursuers. Quite exciting.

SF crossed with noir is a favorite mix of mine. I picked it up in part because of the cover art. I kept it at the top of my reading pile because of the web site (http://the-electric-church.com/). I felt it lived up to the hype. One detail I particularly enjoyed was his fragmented chapter titles. I look forward to more from Jeff Somers.

Shades of Blade Runner. A dash of noir. Not a bad effort Mr.Somers.
