Another solid short story from Alastair Reynolds, shifting gears (no pun intended) to a story about an interplanetary racing series in house-sized monster trucks. This brief tale does what he is so good at, telling a complete tale with compelling characters that also leaves you thoughtful at the end with a strong social question: what really matters to us life, and what price are we willing to pay for fame and glory?
