The guy seems to know his stuff, but unfortunately, technical proficiency does not make a good suspense thriller. I had fun reading the terrible dialogue out loud, but otherwise, this book bored the daylights out of me.

Hard to believe no one else has entered this book. Actually pretty fun, but listen to this blurb: "When a computer programmer at Artelligence warns his superiors that a simple virus could infect their revolutionary Master Voice program, no one believes him until it is too late." A different era.
