Negative Positive
Title: Sorry to disagree with most of you, but...
Review: I found this book very hard to get into, and in fact finally gave up on it after a very turgid 200+ pages. The author jumps from the 1940s to the 1990s at will and his characters are two dimensional and did not seem real to me. The story had to do with the creation of a "data haven" in the Phillipine Islands, but the author never fully explained the significance of a data haven or why it would be important. The editors should also do some fact checking. For example, I don't think the Special Air Service (in the British Military) existed during WWII. I had high hopes for this book as I worked in a related area while in the Air Force, but I was disappointed, and I'm afraid that many others will be as well.
