Reviews

While it's basically Little Brother but this time I'm England, I couldn't help but enjoy this book. Yes it has all the same Doctorow-y tropes but I enjoy his style and characters. Makes me want to move to a hugely urban city and put on my own pirate cinemas. A light fun romp for those who enjoy the teenage techno rebellion genre.
