Homeland

by Cory Doctorow

Marcus Yallow is no longer a student. California's economy has collapsed, taking his parents' jobs and his university tuition with it. Thanks to his activist past, Marcus lands a job as webmaster for a muckraking politician who promises reform. Things are never simple, though: soon Marcus finds himself embroiled in lethal political intrigue and the sharp end of class warfare, American style.

Finished this a while ago. Pretty good. Not as good as the first one but worth the read. I'm excited to see if there will be more. Mad props to Cory Doctrow for releasing for free (I bought a copy to support him). Makes me want to go to Burning Man.

Loved this story and it was interesting to follow Marcus and his friends lives after Little Brother. The characters are reaching a point where some are leaving school behind for work, others are continuing their education and some just don't know what is next in their lives. My only issue with the book is personal, some of the tech stuff leaving my head spinning and I would have to leave the book to try and find more info on what was going. Luckily the tech stuff doesn't get in the way of a great story.
