The Digital Plague by Jeff Somers Orbit Supplied for review by Hachette New Zealand |
Reviewed By: Jacqui Smith |
| Now, if you got infected with a nanoplague that killed
everyone you’d came in contact with, but left you alive, you’d do the obvious
thing and lock yourself up somewhere nice and private, and away from other people,
wouldn’t you? You might, but you’re not Avery Cates. He wants to find whoever
did this to him, and then he wants to kill them. And so, if you thought the body count was
high in The Electric Church, it gets a whole lot higher in The
Digital Plague. Much higher, since everywhere Avery goes, he takes the
plague with him… and millions will die an unpleasant death. And the world that was
teetering on the edge in The Electric Church simply can’t
take that kind of punishment. You need to be aware that this is very much a sequel, although it is complete in itself, and that these books need to be read in the correct order. And of course, I’ll slap the metaphorical R18 (language and violence) label on this one too. That said, it’s an action thriller, it’s noir, and if that’s your martini… it’s nicely shaken, and a bit stirred as well. |
