I was wondering if anyone here has read the book Daemon and what are your thought on it? I picked up this book a while back and I must say it is highly fast-paced and enjoyable. Suarez portrays the characters in such a captivating way. Many reviewers are comparing Daemon to books as Matrix was to movies. I highly recommend it if anyone is looking to pick up a new book, especially if you are into advanced technology, mysteries, and fast-paced thrillers. It is a two book series.

Summary:
Starred Review. Originally self-published, Suarez's riveting debut would be a perfect gift for a favorite computer geek or anyone who appreciates thrills, chills and cyber suspense. Gaming genius Matthew Sobol, the 34-year-old head of CyberStorm Entertainment, has just died of brain cancer, but death doesn't stop him from initiating an all-out Internet war against humanity. When the authorities investigate Sobol's mansion in Thousand Oaks, Calif., they find themselves under attack from his empty house, aided by an unmanned Hummer that tears into the cops with staggering ferocity. Sobol's weapon is a daemon, a kind of computer process that not only has taken over many of the world's computer systems but also enlists the help of superintelligent human henchmen willing to carry out his diabolical plan. Complicated jargon abounds, but most complexities are reasonably explained. A final twist that runs counter to expectations will leave readers anxiously awaiting the promised sequel.
