Daniel Suarez
In one of the most buzzed-about debuts, Daniel Suarez introduced a terrifying vision of a new world order, controlled by the Daemon, an insidious computer program unleashed by a hi-tech wunderkind, Daemon captured the attention of the tech community, became a New York Times and Indie bestseller, and left readers hungry for more.
Well, more is here, and it's even more gripping than its predecessor. In the opening chapters of Freedom(tm), the Daemon is firmly in control, using an expanded network of real-world, dispossessed darknet operatives to tear apart civilization and rebuild it anew. Soon civil war breaks out in the American Midwest, in a brutal wave of violence that becomes known as the Corn Rebellion. Former detective Pete Sebeck, now the Daemon's most powerful--though reluctant--operative, must lead a small band of enlightened humans toward a populist movement designed to protect the new world order. But the private armies of global business are preparing to crush the Daemon once and for all.
In a world of conflicted loyalties, rapidly diminishing human power, and the possibility that anyone can be a spy, what's at stake is nothing less than human freedom's last hope to survive the technology revolution.

What the critics say
“Freedom™ surpasses its smart, exciting predecessor. This concluding volume crackles with electrifying action scenes and bristles with intriguing ideas about a frightening, near-future world. The two books combined form the cyberthriller against which all others will be measured.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“An engrossing, fast-paced tale of speculative fiction.”—SF Site

First, Suarez does a great job of mixing together several different genres. It’s a straight-up action thriller that has strong elements of espionage, military/war, apocalyptic/end-of-days, and sci-fi.
Second, his imagination combined with his grasp on all things to do with the internet and technology was impressive. It allows him to weave a believable story that seems ripped out of today’s headlines. That he wrote this story back in 2009 makes the effort all the more impressive.
Third, Suarez writes some best action scenes I’ve encountered in some time. He offers the right amount of everything: detail, speed, and violence. When the SHTF at various points in the novel, it’s visceral.
Overall, Freedom and Deamon are exciting and well-written novels that could be enjoyed by folks who are interested in several different genres. And Freedom has a very satisfying ending.
A quick word about the narrator – exceptional! He has a full range for male and female voices and he does accents very well. A great listening experience.
Quite the ride!
