Software & Business Intrigue at It's Best

Infoquake was such a great read that I feared the sequel wouldn't/couldn't be as great. I've rarely been so pleased with a sequel. The series reminds me of Azimov's Foundation series - only with a slick modern twist. I'm alternatively envious and terrified of the world Edelman's created. I do know that I can't wait to see what happens to Natch and his colleagues next.

Great Read!

I started reading this book and couldn't put it down! I don't even know where to begin? Character evolution is beyond supurb! I just started book 2. If you like the politics of Dune, trust me... this story, (was gonna say book but I find it disrespectfull) is very much worth your time. The political intrique runs very deep! Trust me if you have any love of "Dune", this book is so SO much up your alley!

an edge of your seat, page turner

This exciting novel is much better than Infoquake (which I really liked but wasn't overly moved by). Now I'm hooked on Edelman and I can't wait for his 3rd book. This is sci-fi at its best.

Worth losing sleep to read Multireal

A great read. Unbelievably even more engaging than Infoquake. Edelman creates a symphony of characters, locations and politics, and then conducts the orchestra until their fingers bleed. Every time I thought I had the whole thing figured out, I was ecstatic to be wrong. Multireal is refreshingly original and thoroughly engrossing.

Neuromancer meets Barbarians At The Gate...Post IPO/Surina Bubble

MultiReal is the sequel to David Louis Edelman's Infoquake: Book One of the Jump 225 Trilogy, which I have described as Neuromancer meets Barbarians at the Gate: The Fall of RJR Nabisco or Snow Crash meets Rebel Code: Linux and the Open Source Revolution meets The Predators' Ball: The Inside Story of Drexel Burnham and the Rise of the Junk Bond Raiders MultiReal not only takes Infoquake but the author to the next level. There is no question in my mind that this sequel unequivocally propels and firmly establishes Edelman into the ranks of Gibson, Simmons, Asimov, [and beyond]...where I accordingly predict he [will] take the Hugo, Nebula, Philip K. Dick, and or John Campbell Award(s) for 2008. Once again, and even more successfully with MultiReal, Edelman successfully keeps the reader from eating, bathing, or connecting with the real world until they have reached the last page...accordingly I am now anxiously awaiting the third and final installment of the Jump 225 trilogy, GEOSYNCHRON, so I can continue [the] Edelman diet. Towards Perfection...
