Little Brother

Cory Doctorow's book Little Brother takes you with Marcus Yallow on his technological adventures following a terrorist attack on San Francisco's Bay Bridge. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) kidnaps Marcus and four of his friends following the attack. After playing mental games with Marcus they let him and two of his friends free. Vowing the DHS's destruction following his kidnap and the continued captivity of one of his friends, Marcus leads a techno-rebellion against the DHS. But he knows that the DHS is only one step behind him and his capture is inevitable. Little Brother is an amazing tale of youthful anti-dystopian rebellion that keeps you on the edge of your seat right up to the end, and you don't even have to wait for the sequel, Homeland, because it just came out. I give this book a rating of 9 out of 10 wolves.
