More over the top than The Blonde, with its mad scientist,
deadly nanobytes, sybarites, etc? Wow.

This one is very different from Duane's later tight
thrillers, kind of weird, crossing crime with PK Dickish
ideas. I was a little bit disappointed, thought it kind of
got away from him, but I know others think highly of it. I
still picked up Wheelman when it came out, though. Of course,
I am a caper freak.
