The Quantum Spy by David Ignatius
4.0
Very fun book. This spy / action thriller is good because it reflects real-world possibilities among large states seeking to one-up the other via possession of unique technology (which also has the potential to be hugely disruptive).
It's also good because it accurately represents the current state-of-the-art in quantum technologies, which makes it credible.
Not only all that, it's super well-written. It's my first exposure to this author - whom I know from when appears on MSNBC Morning Joe. I've also read some of his stuff at WaPo; now I'm also interested in reading more of his novels.
For me, this is a nice new author to explore.
