This book had a really interesting premise, but I couldn't get past the writing style. It would have better to let the characters' backstory and personalities emerge naturally rather than engage in a lot of exposition up front.

Alan 2 was the perfect Personal Assistant, as long as he was confined to the small world of a single computer. When he has access to the world, self-awareness changes him. He becomes "one of us".

Artificial intelligence running amok is not an uncommon theme but the author did manage to put his own stamp on it. The story built up a good momentum and certainly kept one turning the pages. Overall a good read and certainly one I am happy to have in my library.

Interesting read, it felt like something that is happening right now in our tech world. The FBI tense situation and cyber explorations, artifical intelligence and so on. Slowly building, managed to keep you reading even when I thought not. Glad I finished it, thank you.
