About this ebook
The New York Times bestseller Daemon unleashed a terrifying technological vision of an all-powerful, malicious computer program. Now, our world is the Daemon's world—unless someone stops it once and for all...
The Daemon is in absolute control, using an expanded network of shadowy operatives to tear apart civilization and build it anew. Even as civil war breaks out in the American Midwest in a wave of nightmarish violence, former detective Pete Sebeck—the Daemon's most powerful, though reluctant, operative—must lead a small band of enlightened humans in a movement designed to protect the new world order.
But the private armies of global business are preparing to crush the Daemon once and for all. In a world of shattered loyalties, collapsing societies, and seemingly endless betrayal, the only thing worth fighting for may be nothing less than the freedom of all humankind.

Meh... Daemon was longer but an easier read, it contained all the novel/cool ideas and was generally more interesting. This one was a drag, frankly. I lost interest somewhere after the first hundred pages. In any case: unnecessarily gory both of them for my taste. Characters are not believable, their humanity is missing. 2/5

Good sequel to the first book: not as strong (and at times a bit "cheesy") but still very engaging. I also enjoyed Suarez continuing building on the concept that in every revolution you will have good and evil on both sides
