Reviews

"That is surface Luke at the shallow end, but the deep end is darker." Landry prefaces his techno-thriller with an overview of the birth, infancy, and rise of the internet with a reminder that there's no centralized governance of it. Landry's work shines as a cautionary tale that examines our behaviors in a technology-driven world. It is a disturbing, Hitchcockian story that explores the ideologies of cyberspace, escapism, and illusions of safety and privacy. Here, Landry probes the dangers of reality versus fantasy and justifications of awful decisions in an alarming, compulsive read." — Book review by Dylan Ward
