The strength of these stories is the practical element. These aren't esoteric science fiction, but rather contemporary tales with an interesting sci-fi aspect. They demonstrate the downsides (and occasionally strengths) for such universal reliance on the technology.
Each story adds a new perspective on this all too believable world. In this story we join a young lady on a night out clubbing with her friends. On the surface it's a superficial look but lurking beneath is a bleak study of how technology can isolate us - even within the crowd.
As with his other stories this is very well written and a fine addition to the series.
