Summary: Good entertaintment
Comment: I noticed the highly polarized reviews for this work. I read many, many novels but seldom leave feedback because I never pay attention to someone else's opinion, because opinions, after all, are highly subjective. But after reading this book, I simply couldn't resist to put in my two cents and add to those praising this fine story. This is a good book. Period. It's one of those that you simply can't put down once you start. The conflict is gripping, the characters unforgetable, the technology amazingly real and easy to understand, and the action is out of this world. I read someone complaining about typos and grammatical errors. I spotted four in the entire book. People, really, give this guy a break. I've spotted far more errors in some of Clancy's and Ludlum's works. Pineiro definitely knows how to write good fiction.

Summary: Intriguing, exciting, but also quite terrifying
Comment: This is my third Pineiro novel (01-01-00 and Breakthrough were my first two). In this story, the author creates a scenario that guarantees to keep you at the edge of your seat. It's got computer viruses, chips going bad from sabotage, terrific FBI characters, a crack Navy SEAL team, and even a responsible and level-headed president. I've noticed a few comments from readers complaining about typos. I found four in the entire book, and while they should have gotten caught by the editors, they certainly didn't detract me from enjoying such terrific story. I'm sure the author and the publisher will get them fixed on the paperback. By the way, the last Grisham and Clancy that I read had far more errors but I didn't see anyone complaining, so why pick on this author? Pineiro deserves a lot of credit for writing with a powerful and authoritative hand and not pulling any punches, painting the kind of terrific scenarios and characters that will leave readers screaming for more.
