bartimaeus2002 's review for:
Attack Surface
by Cory Doctorow
This book gets 5 huge stars for the afterwords and authors notes.
The story...I'll give it 3 stars. It was enjoyable, it was nice being back in the world of LB & HL and the characters we met there. It had to be tempting to write more about Yallow but I'm glad, in the end, that you didn't. And, I'm always impressed when male authors try to write honestly (or what at least from another male's pov seems like honestly) in the voice of a leading female character. You seem to tap into a little Amor Towles in that regard in this novel and THAT is a huge compliment.
While your writing always scares the living sh!t out of me and what the future holds for my already tech-obsessed tween you don't just provide the problem but also a pathway to a solution...a glimmer of hope and I thank you for that.
