I really enjoyed this book! It's a little bit of a crossover between the fantasy and the sci-fi genre, which is cool. The basic premise is that at some point in the future (2015) a massive supercollider explodes warping the fabric of reality and creating gates/connections between 6 worlds (one each for the elves, demons, humans, dead, faery and elementals). The story takes place a while after this has happened, and there has been some integration of some, at least, of these worlds.
The main character is a cyborg woman named Lila Black, who is assigned to body guard a rock-star elf (Zal), who has been receiving death threats.
There's lots of excitement and tons of cool ideas, as well as some nice character work. And it's all packed into a relatively short 340 odd pages.
I love the world that Robson has created and look forward to spending some more time in it in the next 2 books of the Quantum Gravity trilogy.
