I have known Dan Abnett through the universe and WH40K A Omnibus of Ghosts of Gaunt, Cycle 1: Foundation (Integral T1 to T3). A precise style, searched, realistic.
War Zone is no exception to this clarification.
Beginning a bit long (but pleasant), a hundred pages or all starts with a journalist whom we know nothing except that it is a good, landed on a planet run by companies and / or official bodies which we know the name.
A discovery: The linguistic patch beeper that replaces dirty words with a proprietary name (quite original).
Then the pace accelerated after the immersion of Falk and his departure on the TOE. A first commitment screaming reality immersive, we believe it. If the universe in which the characters will not or little mention, Dan Abnett is not stingy in the descriptions of staged scenes.
Finally, a novel, you could almost be on earth in the near future (for the technology transfer of consciousness), simple, easy to read but quite addictive and immersive.
A good moment of distraction ...
