Review: Didactic in places (think browbeaten by politics, to the point of boredom) yet worth reading...

“Before locks that you could command to repel a specific person from your door if you wanted…”― Sean Platt, The Beam: Episode 1So, this book is worth the read (for free). I'll admit, I skimmed the most tedious parts (think politics, exposition, excessive description of mediocre not-mindbending technologies that weren't relevant to the current plot), yet read the whole thing. I'll also admit I didn't spring for the next episode.I prefer the work of Neal Stephenson ('Snow Crash') or William Gibson ('Neuromancer') or Kurt Vonnegut ('Sirens of Titan'). Still, you may LOVE this book. Happy reading~*
