Another good story from Doctorow. He does not allow the wowness to distract from the story. Even so, I read these stories and wonder where these great ideas come from because I see them germinating in all the scifi I read lately. Maybe there is some common source that all these guys tap into, maybe they are just re-reading the same greats(Heinlein, Asimov).

Loved it. Marcus is part Holden Caulfield, part Ender Wiggin and as w1n5t0n he leads the counter-revolution against counter-terrorism. If you've wondered about the value of taking your shoes(or your 6month old baby's shoes) off in the airport OR just what help those different colored alert states are... Give this one a try and maybe gain insight to the elusive hacker culture as well.
