Title: This book is technically very believable.
Review: As a computer journalist myself, I typically cringe anytime I see computers addressed in fiction. Almost without exception, I find great technical flaws, inappropriate terminology, or some other problem that lets me know that the author knows little about computer technology. In this respect, Virus is a refreshing change of pace. Not once did I find myself muttering, "Yeah, right." Sure, some of the technology seems far-fetched, but this is 20 years in the future. All of the technology was presented in a very believable manner. (I also found it amusing that everyone seemed to use UNIX systems, with no mention at all of anything from Microsoft.)Aside from technical merit, Virus pulled me in immediately and kept me reading, even though I had more "important" things to do. I finished this book in about a day and a half. Overall, I'd say it's one of the best books I've read in quite some time.
