Here's Kastler's review of hooked
REVIEW TEXT FOLLOWSHooked starts off quite literally with a "bang" – and then just keep srolling! I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and couldn't wait to read the next chapter to find out what our hero, Nat Idle would get himselfmixed up in. Nat is styled after a Hitchcockian everyman anti-hero in a high-tech world, where things seem to just keep happening to him,not due to him. This muddle through it, "why me?" attitude gets tossed out the window (along with his cell phone) mid-way through thebook and Nat evolves into a Fletch-like character intent on resolving the mysterious ways of evil VC's and big-shot tech corporations – even at the risk of his own life and sanity. Overall a great read that deserves the category "high-tech thriller" but with technology never entering at the expense of reader involvement, understanding, or plot development. Matt does a fine job of giving vent to some of hispredictions and insights about technology without letting us in for a diatribe on the topic – a tricky edge that many authors have difficulty with.
