Loved it
Taken by themselves, the propositions contained in the book is absolutely farcical. However, the utter genius of King is that he can take preposterous ideas and magic them into exciting page turners you become fully invested in and just can’t put down.
SPOILER ALERT.
Although a riveting and exciting book, the only small jarring point for me was the usb thumb drive McGuffin. This article becomes somewhat of an important almost magical item to be kept safe and treasured. I kept thinking “you do realise you can just copy the data to a computer or other usb drive(s) don’t you? Even if encrypted, it can be done?” In addition I kept questioning whether, in this age of almost flawless special fx, the evidence on the usb drive was as water tight as it’s portrayed.
This is a small gripe - my advice - just read it.
