Most enjoyable read.This exciting tale grabs your attention.

Didn't want it to end.

I really got into the characters and their relationships. This fast paced book wouldn't let me put it down. I had to read it in two days. It has a great mix of science, political intrigue and industrial espionage. Now I'm waiting for the movie to see how they are going to depict Regina's microrobot. It would be an interesting challenge for Speilberg

This one will leave you begging for more...

This book is dynamite ! It's truly one of the great books I have read. The story mixes technology with human nature to show the potential abuses and the emotional ups and downs associated with power-seeking. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a good read
