In my opinion, JINX is the weakest of the three books in the KESTREL series. To explain, I’m going to include spoilers. This is partly an issue with my own interest, because I couldn’t get into the premise of a classified Artificial General Intelligence escaped from the lab and started killing people. I enjoyed the discussion of privacy and the dangers of automated systems, but I don’t enjoy the AGI angle. The story was interesting enough and it was good to get more of the characters’ stories, although Aldridge was getting on my nerves a bit. I still enjoyed it for the most part, but found the ending unsatisfying.
