I completely agree. Even the storylines with Cynthia and her love interests never really developed. It was like they were there one chapter and gone the next.SolemUmbra wrote: ↑03 Jul 2019, 14:17 Very much so! It’s late in the book when the hit a slight hiccup from America. Even that is solved easily and they remain pretty much anonymous. Even if the other side couldn’t get at them to slow them down they would have threatened something. I thought that this book was just surface level across the board. It touched on many things but didn’t fully develop plots in those areas which I think made it lacking.

They could have been hacked by the opposing side and had to combat them. Maybe even had threats made to them, or have them make mistakes and cause more damage than good at times. There are many ways that conflict could have been added.ChaosofaMadHatter wrote: ↑05 Jul 2019, 18:12 What kind of conflict/difficulty do you think the author should have included to both keep the pace of the book while making it more realistic?

I definitely think it wouldn't be easy. I certainly wouldn't have a clue how to hack into anything I think the book made it look too easy and it should have been more realistic.

I completely agree. I kept waiting for the big event, the drama, the suspense and it just never came. I'm a bit disappointed, to be honest.Letora wrote: ↑03 Jul 2019, 08:14 As I am reading through the book, it seems like whenever the cyberwar is brought up, there isn't any conflict. They take down websites, change language, break encryptions, but nothing has been happening to them! Being over halfway through the book I find it hard to believe that everything is going off perfectly and there has been no connection to Cynthia and her brother. Does anyone else feel this way?

I think a little research would have gone a long way. Good point! Now putting all the technical language into something easily read, that might be a challenge.
