Customer Reviews

Fantastic!

I must have been reading a different book to the person below. I thought that Internet Spy was fantastic. Sure it was short but since when was size that important? It's a really enjoyable book.

Internet Spy--A Fast-Paced-High-Tech Thriller.

The book "Internet Spy", by Ian Probert, is a great book. It is an in-depth, fast-paced novel about computer hacking. If you're into that sort of thing, than you'll love this book. The main character in the book was at the home of his friend, Karl. Karl shows the boy (who remained unnamed throughout the book) the Internet. The boy was fascinated. However, the boy's interest was defeated when he found out that the man was spying. He quickly ran out. This isn't the most impossible book to read, topping out at under one hundred pages, but it is a good one. If you're into the world of computers, than you'll definitely want to read this book.

The book of the year!

I got this book from my best friend for Christmas - I've already read it five times! It is the best book I have ever read

A classic of its time

I took the advice of the above reviewer and bought myself a copy of this book. Rarely have I come across anybody who writes so well and so entertainingly. And what's with the Doors references hidden in the text? Anybody out there with a brain - then read this

A fantastic book!

Although this book is for teenage readers, I am quite sure that older readers will enjoy it equally well. It tells the story of a group of hackers in Germany who fall foul of the KGB. It is an extremely good first book by the author, Ian Probert. Apparently he's just published another book in England called 'Virus Outbreak"
