Cassandra Kresnov - a highly advanced hunter-killer android - returns to face down a rogue government's plot to eliminate free will.
Commander Cassandra Kresnov has her hands full. She must lead an assault against the Federation world of Pyeongwha, where a terrible sociological phenomenon has unleashed hell against the civilian population. Then she faces the threat from a portion of League space known as New Torah, in which a ruthless regime of surviving corporations are building new synthetic soldiers but taking the technology in alarming directions.
On the Torahn world of Pantala, Sandy encounters betrayal, crisis, and conspiracy on a scale previously unimaginable. Most challenging of all, she also meets three young street kids who stir emotions in her she didn't think she was capable of. Can the Federation's most lethal killer afford unexpected sentiment? What will be the cost if she is forced to choose between them and her mission, not only to her cause, but to her soul?

There is political intrigue, ass kicking of bad guys by Sandy and her friends, Ground Battles, philosophical reflection on the nature of man and how technology can change him, and lessons on various current religions and East Asian societies -- reflected into the future.
I enjoyed it and will be listening to this book again.
Another great Kresnov Story/Preformance.

What made the experience of listening to 23 Years on Fire the most enjoyable?
The story starts very slow to the point you almost want to give up on it. However if you stick with it, the last 25% keeps you listening and in the end, you are reaching so to speak for the the next book...Starts slow

Laws are the basis of society, the lead character is in the police/ military because her main motivation is doing the right thing yet SHE always flaunts the law when it's not convenient for her. Too many people in the real world think the same way, it's a crappy way to participate in society.
Just one example (and there's many more), the lead character is taken to a legitimate court for a legitimate reason and instead of following the rules she has to get into a pissing match with the judge because she isn't willing to leave her weapons outside. She didn't have to get into a fight with the judge but she used her first sentence to antagonize and embarrass the judge just because she could. Of course she can do this legally because she helped to write the law to allow her to do things her way.
It would be acceptable if the lead was meant to be a bad guy or some kind of grey hat, but we are led to believe this character is a squeaky clean do gooder... even when she does something borderline she is still given a virtuous reason for her actions.
So the good guy protecting the law has no respect for anyone else other than herself and her friends who are protecting the law. It's kind of crap but whatever, over all it is a
solid 3 star book.
always an a-hole
