Digital Fortress - Dan Brown

Digital Fortress is a sensational book, especially for those who like pure technology, the theme will encryption, to the deepest secrets of the NSA (National Security Agency). It's amazing how the writer can hold the reader from beginning to end, that is, apart from the fact that some technologies and the places mentioned in the book are completely real, which makes reading even more intriguing.
This was the first book by Dan Brown, and was on the bestseller lists of The New York Times, soon after came "Angels and Demons, The Da Vinci Code," "Deception Point" and "The Lost Symbol," which was not much different in the ranking of the top sellers.
All books follow the same script, but none disappoint. The works of Dan Brown's in my opinion among the best I've ever met.
I am without doubt a big fan, and I recommend not only the Digital Fortress, like all other books. It's Worth it! ;)
