"Rebuilt" by Michael Chorost? What did you think of it?
I think it is well written and some of it made me laugh and cry (the bit where he described his tinnitus after the hearing loss) but in a lot of ways it was a little bit too introspective. I think he takes the cyborg angle a little bit too far and I really didn't need to know about his sad sex life.
He certainly has a talent for writing though. The first chapter was excellent. It gave me a feel for how the process works as well, such as the initial disappointment upon being activated which then eventually gave way to growing satisfaction.
(PS I hope he doesn't lurk here!)
