On the Symb-Socket Circuit

An interesting, flawed tale about space drugs, space cats and space bees. It was hard to understand who the audience was supposed to be, because there were numerous depictions of violent deaths and nudity and sex but all the swear words were censored.

I enjoyed Bulmer's prose; it was almost poetically written, which is why I'm ultimately giving it the four stars.

Lots of cool ideas are explored and also some very dumb ideas are posited. And the plot goes into anti-capitalism territory instead of playing it safe with a traditional adventure direction. Worth a read for sure.
