Goodreads algorithms shouldn't have too much trouble figuring out my taste.
This is another down the same path as the books I've read by [a:Neal Stephenson|545|Neal Stephenson|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1314902446p2/545.jpg] or [a:Daniel Suarez|1956402|Daniel Suarez|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1265394868p2/1956402.jpg] which take some tech that is basic today, fast-forward 50 years or so, and explore the ramifications of what that means.

Good adventurous romp with enough time for thought about the benefits and problems.
There's another in this series... that's on my to-read list.
