I liked this book a lot, but I am not sure how good it is, if that makes much sense. There is a lot of explaining about how free software and cryptography works intertangled with techno-libertarian propaganda mixed in with the dystopian tale. Most of that was old hat for me. I would want one of my non-technical friends to read it and let me know wether that stuff was informative or boring or something else. returnreturnPlot wise a group of teenage LARPers get stuck in a terrorist attack and then DHS takes then into custody. It was dirty and scary. The story mixed in adventure, freedom, and high school romance. If that sounds good go for it.
