Rating: 3, Good, ordinary, story
Beck is a teen-age girl who lives on Seastead, a collection of offshore platforms claiming independence from the US. Their organization has collapsed, and do-gooders from the mainland are trying to help deal with a couple of epidemics.
Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: Although this is part of a sequence of stories set in Seastead, this one can stand alone. Beck earns the right to be involved, and she manages to make a difference fixing the problems on Lib.
Con: Reading it in isolation you get the feeling that you've missed most of the story. Out of context of the rest of the series, it leaves loose ends everywhere.

Average story and doesn’t help that this is the only part of the story I read. Feels very much like a YA story with a teen lead that can do no wrong.
