Absolutely brilliant. Ellis pulls from what's going on in the world and just keeps raising the stakes.

And you can feel him working toward the endgame. Amazing series.

This volume brings a new pace to the story. Spider and his assistants find themselves among a mass media warfare. A storm hits the city, Jerusalem's health is getting worse, and a sniper thunders the Print district. Hidden and prepared to deliver some essential information against the president, the protagonists will have to face unforeseen dangers.
In a later part of the volume, Spider, slowly accepting his growing disease, will face the president at the conference room.
