Product Description

THE TIMES
'engaged me instantly, the reader, Bruce Sabbath, keeps up a cracking pace as the mystery deepens and disaster follows disaster.' --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

Product Description
When the NSA's invincible code-breaking machine - encounters a mysterious code it cannot break, the agency calls in its head cryptographer, Susan Fletcher, a brilliant and beautiful mathematician. What she uncovers sends shock waves through the corridors of power. The NSA is being held hostage...not by guns or bombs, but by a code so ingeniously complex that if released it will cripple U.S. intelligence.

1.0 out of 5 stars PUT THIS BOOK DOWN !!!, 25 Jan 2006
By A Customer
Reading the Da Vinci code by Dan brown was a breath of fresh air and made me pick up this book to see if Dan Brown could recreate his exploits into another book. How wrong I was. The Digital Fortress has a storyline way too farfetched and the characters are as linear as a 2d platform game. I was very dissapointed with actually buying this book as I got caught in the Dan Brown hype and dismissed all negative comments of this book being blinded by the brilliance of the Da Vinci Code.

Dont buy this book....It is a complete waste of time and you will be more enthralled watching the contestants of big brother sleeping than reading this.

2.0 out of 5 stars Hard to believe its the same author!, 9 Aug 2004
Having read 'The Da Vinci Code' and 'Deception Point', both of which I thoroughly enjoyed, It is difficult to believe this is Dan Brown and not a 'Bay Watch' script writer trying to make a few quid on the side.

Unlike the rest of his books, the plot here is paper thin (close to none existent) and the pace is incredibly slow (up until the last couple of chapters). What really kills it is the obviously poor research into IT, Computers, Viruses and Encryption - I cringed the whole way through the book.

If you like Dan Brown because you've read his other books, do yourself a favour and avoid reading this one as it will only spoil your opinion of the author.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this book, 12 Aug 2005
By A Customer
Sorry, but I totaly agrees with the others which slaughterd this book. If you liked the "daVinci Code" and "Angels & Demons", there i no need to buy this book. The plot isn't working. His attempts at disguising his missing knowledge of the computers, cryptografy and mathematics by thanking "people working in the NSA" for information is the most fun part of the book. Not even in the simplest parts of the books theme can he make ANYTHING right.

Buy the daVinci Code, but not this book!
