Breach (An Analog Novel Book 3) is my ninth Eliot Peper book. Can you
tell that I love his writing? This might be his best novel yet which means he
has already passed a very high standard of near-future science fiction writing.
This is the third novel in the Analog series. His protagonist is Emily Kim who
we met in the first Analog novel, Bandwidth.
This novel opens 13 years since the end of the second book in the series, Borderless. Emily has totally disappeared from Commonwealth, the company which controls the feed - the source of all knowledge and so much more. She is about to reappear in this new story. I strongly you to read the novels in order so that you’ll benefit from the character development.
Normally, I’m
not a sci-fi guy, but this story forces the reader to consider the pros and
cons of our developing technology. I think this series is an appeal to industry
leaders like Tim Cook, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos to consider possible
outcomes of unregulated technical advances. Emily Kim is one of the most
compelling fiction characters that I’ve ever encountered. The plot is gripping,
and the good guys and bad guys are all real and believable. It’s a quick and
exciting read, but start with Bandwidth.
