I largely enjoyed the book. It had some similarities in flag to Daemon and Freedom(tm).
I liked the strong female protagonists except the author went the usual route of killing off the human FBI agent and the female-ish ai and had the other female protagonist inexplicably hitched to the leading guy. Because. Just because. It is annoying.

Fun read. Tough to get into but after a few chapters I couldn't put it down - wanted to know how things panned out.

Listened to the audiobook & really enjoyed it. Sat in the car listening (in my garage) several times, which is the audiobook equivalent to staying up too late to read. Sorta weird, complex story to try to briefly explain, but geeky science related. Definitely worth a read.

A lighter read and more sci-fi than Daemon or Freedom. Well written, fast paced and enjoyably story, I liked it.

Science Fiction. Enjoyed this book. A lot of techno babble, story not realistic but trilling story involving futuristic prison/research lab, future technological advances (not realistic), AI and abuse of power. Lots of fun.

Fun read! The science behind it all is astounding and adds to the engrossing nature of the book. I've yet to be disappointed by Suarez!

It was good. But this one was definitely more sci-fi than science than Suarez's other books. At least that is how it seemed to me. Fortunately he included at the end a list of nonfiction that inspired his "gravity mirror" plot, so I'll be adding those to my to-do list.

Fun book clearly in search of a movie. Moves fairly quickly and confirms (sometimes in reverse) everything the tinfoil hat crowd (at least, a teacher I had long ago anyway) already believes anyway.

A good premise, but in the end I think it fell a little short of its potential.

Entertaining and fast paced with an eye for future tech. I enjoyed this book: it had a big blockbuster like quality to it which made it an easy and quick read. A few eye rolls at the character work, and the predictable romance, but nothing major.
