Query: Loud exclamations from my reading room disturbed my cat.

Highly enjoyable character portraits painted with a fine camelhair brush. Within a few pages, I was 'jacked' into this book much like the groupies that jacked into the experiences of the gladiator-kite-cyborgs that raced to live. The scenes and the science are painted carefully but not so completely as to dilute the reader's curiosity. Ms. McHugh is in danger of being sent to Mars to tend goats by the distinct-plot-demanders. But the tapestry of this plausible future populated by plausible beings is quite plausibly complete in itself. This book succeeds and that bodes well for my reading future.
