4.0

4.5 Stars. Even better than the first book! This series is fantastic. YOU SHOULD GO READ IT NOW! I think my favorite parts are the updates at the end of the books providing factual "here is where we are today with this type of technology". It's kind of eerie to think about how close we might be to actually developing such tools & how they could be used and/or abused. Which might we accomplish first? Nexus or destroying ourselves with WMD or global warming? If we accomplish something like Nexus first & are able to group think on a global scale, perhaps we could actually stop both of those issues... one can dream, right? ;)

I only had one quibble with this book

Spoiler

Sam really should have thought to purge Nexus before she was coerced into killing Kevin
