It is in pursuit of this mad scientist, Skellor, that we find Cormac working with Gant, a former Sparkind and now a memplanted Golem, and Scar, one of Dragon’s creations. The novel introduces another, more sophisticated yet still psychotic villain as well. Fleshing them out and giving them more of the stage, we come to understand and see a little more of the universe that Asher has created, offering a contrast against which we can consider agent Cormac. The Line of Polity reunites us with Agent Ian Cormac as well as a number of other characters from Asher’s debut. Becoming absorbed in a writer’s universe is a wonderful thing when you have the time to do it (although the ‘holiday diet’ is coming to an end as training has recommenced). I haven’t read an author back to back for a long while and it makes me feel like a kid on my summer holidays as I delve further into Neal Asher’s Polity novels.
