Started reading it purely because of peer pressure and FOMO. Also wanted to get started into the genre sci-fi for some time but wanted something that is easy.

This was a jolly good listen. Wil Wheaton’s narration was really fantastic and mesmerising. The story is in a typical Dan Brown template and perfectly follows Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey. So nothing marvelous or pathetic.

The main motivation for reading this is: Steven Spielberg is directing a movie based on the book. For a die-hard Matrix trilogy fan in me, Spielberg’s Minority Report was a watershed moment. The jetpacks, interactive gloves, and host other innovations were mind-blowing moments of Minority Report. Wanted to know Spielberg’s interpretation of the story. Most importantly, the depiction of the visor, haptic rigs/gloves and in general every futuristic gadget.
