This blew my mind!!!!

February 20, 2014

Very interesting techno-thriller that gets the computer stuff correct.

Some very interesting ideas, almost more interesting than the story being told. I was discomforted to find myself switching allegiance halfway through the book, wanting the “good guys” to stop fighting against the Daemon.
