This review is for by Lauren Ring. This is one where the world has caught up--the facial recognition technology the protagonist is working on in the story exists and is in use. So more of a fantasy story in that we have fantastic golems working with the resistance to it. Kind of a stab to the conscience of all of us working for an enterprise we know is destructive, and that's where a lot of today's wealth in America is coming from. Glad to have read it, deserving of its Nebula nomination.
