Outernet

Somebody had to write it. The possibility that the internet could be compromised to the extent that it no longer exists was a story waiting to be written. D.P. Nicholls has done this so successfully without taking the reader into a massively complicated story line involving technical explanations of how it could be achieved.The way in which he combines the intrigues of commerce with the incredible ability of the back bedroom hacker and what can happen when they have a common aim reveals an absolute mastery of the written word.Be not afraid dear reader, all is well in the end, as it should be, but it's how he takes you there and although some may see the end coming, it still takes you by surprise. A little masterpiece which would make a great movie.The rather juicy romantic inclusion was also quite delightful. A liitle bit of life in the raw is never amiss, anywhere.jfk

What happens when someone wants to turn the internet off?This was a good technothriller, not too much techno and quite a bit of thriller.I rather enjoyed this.

Really makes you think...a world without the Internet!?! It's not been around that long but we depend on it so much and this book really opens your eyes to that. Great book, tell all your friends...

Absolutely fantastic book. The scary thing is that it could actually happen. Makes you wonder what would happen . I will definitely be recommending this book . Hope the author writes a sequel.

Had me hooked from page one! We need more good reads like this, D.P. Nicholls! Look forward to your next book, this one is FANTASTIC! An absolute must read!

Outernet by D P Nicholls.A great book to read on a flight, by a beach or in the garden. Kept me glued all the way through. Made me realise, my laptop is dispensable.
