Elysium Fire is exactly what I enjoy in a novel, a fast paced, clear plot with great characters and lots of action. As a crime novel this ticks all the boxes in terms of suspense and intrigue and the advanced technology adds an extra layer of immediacy to the plot, everything seems to be quicker, more secret, more dangerous. It is a great, well-rounded story and I would heartily recommend it to anyone from young adult upwards.
We also have a review of Reynolds' [[Slow Bullets by Alastair Reynolds|Slow Bullets]]. Alternatively, on the similar theme of futuristic Utopias you could try [[Places in the Darkness by Chris Brookmyre]].
