This was a complete blast! It's a tech thriller where the tech seems believable. The hacks described are mostly social hacking and less furiously-typing-at-your-keyboard (well some are, but then again you'd not roll your eyes at them). You've two distinct types of characters. Sebeck, who is oblivious to all the technobabble (and there are a lot). Then there's Ross and Philips, who are really comfortable with those stuff. And the best thing is much of the net lingo are never explained, and are meant for readers who knows that Ctrl+Shift+Esc also opens the task manager!
Although the ending was kinda underwhelming. Maybe it's well-explained in book 2. Can't wait to read it.
