Review: Confusing
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 01 20, 2013
The premise of the plot is great, but the narrative is disappointing. The writing lacks depth and fails to impact the reader the way it could have, given the tremendous plot theme. The narrative is too descriptive, with long sentences and even longer paragraphs that tend to divert the reader's concentration. Also, despite the seriousness of the situation (suicides, Russian mafia, killers, hacking, etc.), the overall feel is anything but serious. It reads like book meant for teenaged thriller-cum-sci fi junkies. If you are looking for an average novel with a smashing premise, read this. If you are discerning and looking for something more nuanced, mature and in-depth, give this a go.
