Fun and fast-paced sequel to Daemon.
The characters are fun and the situations are very interesting and although the book was written quite a while ago, the topic is very timely for our society today. Hot touchpoints include AI, liberty, political ruling classes, GMO big-Agriculture, and Augmented Reality.
The writing style and vocabulary is pretty simplistic, but that's what makes it a fun, fast read. The character development is a little thin, but the book takes place in what seems to have been less than a week's time (or close to it).
If you enjoyed Daemon, definitely pick this one up. If you have interest in the social aspects of high technology, especially those topics mentioned above, this is definitely worth the read. I enjoy the “world” that has been built here and would be very interested in a 3rd sequel.
(I'm currently reading Suarez' latest - Change Agent and enjoying it quite a lot)
