A review by unseenwizzzard
Cryptocracy by Van Jensen
4.0
The world is ruled by families who work behind the scenes, pulling strings, manipulating events to be what they want. Until a mysterious man named Hum begins to kill the family patriarchs in an attempt to bring about a dark prophecy.
Jensen and Woods have created a fascinating and terrifying world where conspiracies are more than just theory. I appreciate how they attempted to blend mythology with science fiction technology. Talking animals, aliens, dragons, and Mass Effect-like wrist holo-computers blend together to create an action-packed, no holds barred fight for the future of the planet. The fun part is, who are you supposed to cheer on?
While it appeared that this was a stand alone volume, the ending (no spoilers!) hinted at further volumes to come. Phew!
