Review title: cliched, predictable, unrealistic, tedious
Product review: Cliched: I loved DaVinci code but this not the same class of novel. The writing is riddled with cliches, I expect the phrase "he turned on his heel" in high school essays but not a best seller.Predictable:The plot was almost totally predictable. I think I figured it out after a couple of dozen pages. Usually with a Dan Brown novel it's the guy you least suspect that has a hand in it. So save yourself the trouble and just look for that character early on.Unrealistic:The idea of a graphical display of the hackers penetration is laughable. If you can identify them you can stop them.Tedious:The hunt for the **** was tiresome in the extreme. It seemed contrived to spin out a few more pages of the middle of the novel.I am amazed that reviewers like this stuff. I will stick to reading Houlbecq in french, who seems the only worthwhile modern author.
