For the TL;DR crowd I’ll skip straight to the end: Go read this fucking book now!

For the rest of you, strap yourselves in and let’s ride.

See, as soon as I found out Chuck Wendig had written a book about hackers, I was like YES, I’M ALL IN!

I used to love reading books about hackers. When I was in high school, I eagerly gobbled up Neal Stephenson’s early books like Snow Crash and The Diamond Age. My favorite was actually Zodiac, more of an eco-thriller than a cyberpunk book, but I loved the high-speed thrills and the psychological challenges the heroes of his books had to overcome. I also enjoyed William Gibson’s take on cyberpunk, which was slightly more cerebral, but definitely still high octane. Neuromancer, Idoru, Pattern Recognition, reading these made me feel like in the future, smart people wouldn’t be considered nerds, but rebels, outlaws and even celebrities.
