It's pointless to read this book unless you're a fan of Known Space. About 70% of this book is written as an alternative perspective of events from Crashlander and The Soft Weapon. It'll probably be very hard to understand the events, if you haven't read the previous stories. If you did, and if you like Known Space, you'll most likely be delighted. It introduces new ideas and threads, stitching together episodes functioning previously more or less independently.
