MODERATORS
Anyone read them? How are they?
They’re pretty good. He has a very clear, very technically detailed style. Good solid mystery writing. Kind of like a poor man’s William Gibson. After reading a two page segment of red team blues where Doctorow explains keypair encryption I described him to my wife as “Tom Clancy level detail for computers and the internet” not that Clancy is good, but his stuff is that detailed.
So should I read William Gibson instead?
I can't tell you if you should read William Gibson instead, but I can definitely tell you that you should read William Gibson
I would advise anyone who likes sci-fi to read both of these authors.
