Review of 'Infomocracy' on 'Storygraph'

4 stars

The future world shown in Infomocracy, where the global tech giant known simply as Information has ushered in an era of "pax democratica," has a hold on me - despite being way too real to help escape from current, actual politics. I didn't want to stop reading this story, and, similar to main characters Mishima and Ken, I find myself slightly unsatisfied with the first installment's resolution, sitting around wondering what to do with myself. Luckily for all of us, books two and three are ready to go.

There's so much more that could be said about the world and story that Malka Older has opened up in Infomocracy, but my narrative disorder tells me I need to consume more pre-made content before I can make an Informed decision about this one. We're still at the beginning of the cycle.
