The Night Watch by Sean Stewart

3.0

I liked Resurrection Man so much better. Bring the magic in, don't get rid of it... Perhaps it's also that the magic was so negative, so inimical. It killed off most of the population of the world. And impersonal. I had trouble figuring out which developments were technological and which were magic.

But the book seemed also to have so many dead ends. The machine with a soul, that just disappeared. The man... After all that, he just froze? Too many incompletely characterized people.
