(I got the book from LibraryThing Early Reviewers)

This short novel is fast paced, even too much in some points (English is not my main language, and every now and then I had to stop to make sense of what I just read). The main idea (to steal the Eye of Heaven) is sound, especially together with the counterpoint (the comet which is being catched). From my point of view there is a couple of loose ends (Mr Lau and all the stuff with the former husband of the protagonist), and there is too much needless sex at the beginning, but in summary the novel is worth reading.
