Tim Maughan: Ghost Hardware (2020, Farrar, Straus & Giroux) 4 stars

Review of 'Ghost Hardware' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Good story and very solid world building. If you enjoyed Snow Crash but with it was a little darker, you will also enjoy Infinite Detail.

The fascination with Bristol drum’n’bass is a bit much at times, left me feeling like there was a deeper metaphor I was missing. Maybe that’s true.

I worry the shallow, blunt critique of surveillance capitalism (everything is about data) will prevent this from becoming a classic, but it’s a very good read today.
