What did you like best about The Orpheus Deception? What did you like least?
Sigh. Another one of these books wherein a conservative author shouts his politics at you. There were so many of these cheap shots (don't get between Al Gore and a ham sandwich, harder to find than Michael Moore's neck, etc.) that it really got tedious and completely distracting. FWIW, at least he's not yet gone the full Michael Crichton (State of Fear) and turn a "novel" into nothing more than an Atlas Shrugged-type of political manifesto (Vince Flynn has came close in Extreme Measures).
Anyway, there is a story buried in here and it's actually not that bad though somewhat overly convuluted, anticlimatic and lacking in action (compared to the first Dalton), but still not a bad listen or a complete waste of time.

When the obituary of legendary computer game architect Matthew Sobol appears online, a previously dormant daemon activates, initiating a chain of events that begins to unravel our interconnected world. This daemon reads news headlines, recruits human followers, and orders assassinations. With Sobol’s secrets buried with him, and as new layers of his daemon are unleashed, it’s up to Detective Peter Sebeck to stop a self-replicating virtual killer before it achieves its ultimate purpose - one that goes far beyond anything Sebeck could have imagined.

Excellent Book, Excellent Narration
Revisado: 04-18-10
This is an unusual book without doubt. But if familiar with the inside workings of the internet, or of computer operating systems...it's a can't miss.
Great suspense, interesting politics, great book.
More, Mr. Suarez, please!

Excellent, Like Ludlum at His Best
Revisado: 11-26-08
Probably the best suspense novel I've read in the post-911 era. An edge-of-your-seat thriller that gets better as it develops.
We need more from Mr. Berenson (Ghost War), Audible!
