First of all, the book is starting to get a little dated, even though the premise (implanted computer chips into people cause them to be manipulated by the ultimate bad guy - kind of an "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" meets the "Manchurian Candidate"), is still "out there" for science to deal with.
The plot is difficult to follow at times and does jump around a lot. The main character, Spence, is a likable enough guy but is woefully undeveloped. Some of the other main characters are even less developed. The expected ending with the big plot reveal was certainly not a total surprise, although satisfactory.
There were a couple of plot twists, but not enough to keep me totally engaged in the book, and certainly not up to the standards of the "Master Plotter".
Stick to one of Wilson's better books, including "Direct Descendant", "Nightwatcher", "When First We Deceive", or "Donor". ( )
