meh, not as entertaining as Virtual Light

3 stars

This felt like he just took the outline of Virtual Light and rewrote it with a different cast. That might have been fine if I'd read it years after, but I just read VL the day before, so it was annoying. I also didn't find the environments in this one to be as clear or well-described. I loved it up until Chia gets to the restaurant/flat, but then it lost its intensity for me.
