INTERESTING

I COULD NOT TURN THE PAGES FAST ENOUGH. THE ONLY THING I DIDN'T LIKE ABOUT THIS STORY WAS THAT THE ENDING WAS SO PREDICTABLE. IT DEFINATELY HELD MY INTEREST.

Great Read

Never mind what the egg heads and nit pickers say, this book is well worth the reading. One of my all time favorites. I have read all of "War and Peace"

CHECKMATE

The birth of the computer dominates this classic tale of passion and revenge in Elizabeth Gage's third outing. Her sexy heroine Francie Bollinger may be a genius in electronics but what a looser she is in romance. In fact, all of Gage's characters stink in love. And boy does she make them suffer for it. From incest to rape to murder, the novel screams of clichés, yet with her skillful plot, characterization and prose Gage succeeds in making this a powerful experience. (SPOILER AHEAD) The bad guys may pay and the good guys may win in the end, but the path to there is one heck of a read.-----Martin Boucher

delightfully interesting....

I really admire the way in which the author combined some facts of computer history with a romantic story. It gave the book a more educational value.
