An imaginative investigation into the besetting issues of our information-saturated society… Manages to feel relentlessly thoughtful and new. -- Tim Martin * The Times * A completely new kind of novel. * Bookseller * For all technology can add to storytelling, it’s better as a proper book… Very funny… Makes some keen observations about the trouble people have understanding one another. * Stuff * The high-concept premise is brilliantly simple. * i * A compelling story about difference, rights and power. -- Richard House * Guardian * The plot more than stands on its own two feet, driven by classic narrative virtues: chases, hints of the supernatural, a dystopian thriller, intellectual mystery and cosmic jigsaw puzzle. -- James Kidd * National * Chilling and intelligent thriller about words and intelligence, youth and politics. * New Scientist * an engaging portrait of the iGeneration * Independent * The technological dimension of the project is cool, and the execution is fantastic. But I’m hooked on the story itself. -- Jon Mooallem * New York Times * Entirely revolutionary * Wired *
