"[T]he book sails briskly along on Sandford's quick plotting and clever story." -- Chris Petrakos
-- Chicago Tribune
"Sandford racks up points for Kidd's sophisticated hacking skills and for capturing the sophomoric humor of paranoid computer geeks who probably wear their Lone Gunmen T-shirts to bed." -- Marilyn Stasio
-- New York Times Book Review
