openbook.biz ( Sleep State Interrupt by T.C. Weber This book felt like a mix of the old Mission: Impossible TV show and Ready Player One. It's an odd mix and sometimes it works really well and other times it hits a speed bump. However, this author can write. His use of language and pacing are spot-on and slick. He's a true wordsmith. I can't think of a single passage that felt out of place. There are many things to like about this book. The action sequences are high-tension and exciting, while the attention paid to Waylee's condition is sensitive and thoughtful. The author really excels when the scenes amp up and adrenaline gets pumping. My favorite parts of the book are the scenes set in the virtual world. I think if the balance of the book had leaned more toward Ready Player One and less to MI, I would have given it a higher rating, because I thoroughly enjoyed those bits. The parts that didn't work so well for me all take place in the real world. I really disliked the heavy use of profanity and crude terms for women. I am not a prude and I've been known to say words my mother doesn't approve of, but I get so tired of seeing them in fiction. It felt like I was constantly tripping over the crudest language just as I was getting into the story. There is a very heavy focus on politics here and the author has a definite agenda in mind. I sit right in the middle of the political spectrum, doing my very best to stay neutral on most subjects, but this book made me feel extremely right-wing. I had to laugh when the only middle-ground character in the entire book called Waylee a socialist and she got so offended. I don't know what else you would call her, but I found the politics so off-balance as to be off-putting. To really nail down the coffin on my prude label, I also wasn't happy about all of the pot use. Legal or not, I don't think of smoking pot as the best thing to do in the middle of the heist. At its core, this IS a heist book, and it's got all of the trap) DNS looks Active and website looks Accessable. openbook.biz Website SEMRush Rank is 23,030,423.
