From Kirkus Reviews:
Sequel to Shatner's promising debut, Tekwar (1989), now apparently having mutated into a series, with familiar ingredients: hard-boiled p.i. Jake Cardigan returns to battle the international evildoers peddling the addictive electronic drug tek. Called in to investigate the murder of a top drug-control agent by a reprogrammed human zombie assassin, Jake uncovers a connection with the release of an artificial plague virus now threatening San Francisco (among the victims is Jake's ex-wife). Again, Jake teams up with wisecracking sidekick Gomez and girlfriend Beth to track down the source of the plague and deal with the teklords whose blackmail plot the virus turns out to be. Agreeably tongue-in-cheek, cleverly inventive of future hardware and slang, but with a considerably weaker plot than before; the perfunctory windup doesn't help. Okay for existing fans, but won't win many new converts. -- Copyright ©1991, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.
From Library Journal:
Ex-policeman Jake Cardigan continues his vendetta against the powerful distributors of the insidious drug known as Tek in this sequel to TekWar ( LJ 8/89). As an unknown virus controlled by the drug lords threatens 22nd-century Los Angeles, Cardigan battles programmed assassins and intransigent authorities to prevent a disaster of worldwide proportions. Fast-paced action, high-tech gloss, and a dash of romance combine to establish Shatner as a capable proponent of the hard-boiled school of sf action/adventure. Purchase as indicated by patron demand. Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 1/91.
