Chris's review of Hardwired
Hardwired by Walter Jon Williams
I have had this book on my shelf for ten years. I don't know why I waited to read this book.
I enjoy cyberpunk novels. This has all the ingredients of a cyberpunk novel. Evil Corporations, Implants, Cybernetics, Drugs and the Anti-Hero.
Williams has captured the internal struggle between the common man and "the man", aka the people with the power.
I found it hard to put the book down. The story starts off slow but then slams into to you with full force. The plot isn't so intricate that you get lost, but keeps you guessing what will happen next.
A strong addition to the genre of cyberpunk or techno-thriller, what ever you want to call it. A good read and well worth picking up your own copy.
