Matt Sobol is the long-time CTO and founder of a gaming company that built and maintains a hugely successful World of Warcraft-like massively multiplayer online role playing game (MMORPG). Daemon and Freedom™ describe a world that is rebuilt from the ground up if hackers were to seat themselves comfortably at the design controls. The sequel, Freedom™, published in 2010, is really the second half of the story. Published by Verdugo Press, but self-published first by the author and his wife in 2006, Daemon is a story about hackers who begin a revolution using near-future technology as catalysts to change the world. The two books combine into one story that is Cybersecurity Canon-worthy. He demonstrates quality writing that gets the technical details right. Suarez introduces these new ideas from an old-school hacker perspective in an effort to reboot the world order. These two books tell one long story and are loaded with seemingly futuristic ideas that are just years away from general deployment. If you appreciate hacking stories like The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo or gaming stories like Ready Player One or stories that combine both like Reamde, you will love both Daniel Suarez’s Daemon and his Freedom™ like I did. 5/25/2023 0 Comments Kf breene magical midlife madnessI find myself pretending that the main characters in YA books are older than what they are so I don’t feel old as fuck reading these books.
