Digital Fortress
(Dan Brown)
Digital Fortress by Dan Brown is an exciting ride through a world where there seemingly are no secrets. To the alarm of the NSA''s top cryptographer, Susan Fletcher, the nation''s billion dollar code-breaking machine is suddenly reduced to the status of an expensive paper weight when is encounters the unthinkable . . . an unbreakable code. Digital Fortress. Designed by a disgruntled colleague, the code threatens to make U.S. intelligence a thing of the past. So, with the security of the country and the life of the man she loves hanging in the balance, it is up to the beautiful genius Fletcher to battle through the betrayals and lies that come for her from all directions. No one is safe, including the talented college professor, David Becker, who is sent to recover evidence from the code''s newly deceased creator.
Dan Brown''s thrilling novel is filled with the kind of technical attention to detail that he is known for. Thankfully the technical mumbo jumbo never gets so thick that it is beyond the layman. This is a book for math geeks and action fans alike, which is a good thing since I can barely figure my way out of a beginner level sudoku puzzle.
What do you think? Can a nation survive when secrets stay secret? Should the government be able to hack into private emails in the name of national security? Should there be secrets? How many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop? (sorry couldn''t resist) Part morality play, part techno action adventure, this is a book guaranteed to get you thinking and get your heart pumping and possibly raise your IQ a couple points. So enjoy!
If you like Digital Fortress like I did, check out Brown''s other tales of conspiracy: The Da''Vinci Code and Deception Point.
