Null States

I like the universe in which these stories reside. The idea of microdemocracy is pretty intesteresting to me. The problem I have with this series-having read two of the three titles is that the novels are mainly concept with little plot to drive the story forward. I was forgiving of this in the first title. Here, in the 2nd one, I am less so. While the concept of "null states," which are countries around the microdemocracies who did not adopt this form of governnance has potential, I found little about the plot or the charaters that made me want to keep reading. I finished the novel, but I don't think I can subject myself to the third and final book-regardless of how much I think the setting is engaging.

Good continuation of the series. More of spy-thriller than the previous installment. Looking forward to the third part, recommendation enough in my book.
