Seoul Circuit by Tamara Boyens6/28/2023 The author of this book, tragically, passed away early in 2017 after a failed surgical procedure, but this book rises as her testament to what we all hope for when the odds and fate are against us. Still, with all the challenges this casino-owner fashionista runs into, she has time for love. She’s in a race against time, and the reader is turning pages so fast, it leaves one breathless. The main character, a Technicolor lesbian named Jin, is a prize-her wry, mater-of- fact observations as the neural systems in her body begin to fail are classic cool. A joy from start to finish.Ģ) Although Seoul Circuit is billed by its publisher (Supposed Crimes), as Cyberpunk, this well-written book is written in that taut, tense, tender style that most resembles Scandinavian Noir, but with locales in Korea and Pasadena. The cyberpunk setting is well-thought-out and impeccably detailed. The main character is smart and bold, with just the right amount of concealed vulnerability. 1) This nonstop, fast-paced cyberpunk thriller really knocks it out of the park.
