Review: A clever plague

The plot is fast paced on the one hand, created by the confusion of the novel situation combined with the lack of understanding of what is actually going on. On the other hand our clarity is only gradually increased by a drip feeding of facts. Essentially we are tied up by our own belief that we should be able to understand almost any smoothly progressing situation with the high technology at our disposal yet it is coincidence and sporadic stochastic events that rule.The characters are well used and none is particularly deeply developed which fits with the feel that we have joined a fast developing problem after it has started and there is no time to spare. Overall, a good read!
