Summary

The humans are fighting again. Go figure.

As a free AI, Mal finds the war between the modded and augmented Federals and the puritanical Humanists about as interesting as a battle between rival anthills. He's not above scouting the battlefield for salvage, though, and when the Humanists abruptly cut off access to infospace, he finds himself trapped in the body of a cyborg mercenary, and responsible for the safety of the modded girl she died protecting.

A dark comedy wrapped in a techno thriller's skin, Mal Goes to War provides a satirical take on war, artificial intelligence, and what it really means to be human.

interesting premise with unlikable characters

I read this book because I love post human or AI lead characters. unfortinatly all of the supporting cast have no real likeable qualities. none of them even seem to like each other.
the main cast stumble from scene to scene with only dumb luck and plot armor to keep the story moving.
in the end I enjoyed it but only in spite of these flaws and only just.
