A review by lesliefh
Kiln People by David Brin

2.0

I couldn't shake the vibe that the world the protagonist(s) were living in was designed by a libertarian SF writer and it was really annoying. "Look at how great the world would be if only libertarian dreams would be implemented, we'd solve everything with civil contracts and pay informants/whistleblowers a lot of money, so organised crime and corporate overreach would disappear!" Yeah, right. Still, I liked the worldbuilding with duplication technology.
