DIGITAL FORTRESS: Exceptional novel about unbreakable code

Written: Feb 04 '07 (Updated Feb 05 '07)
Pros:Great techno-thriller. The story has a lot of twists.
Cons:Needs a lot of time reading it.
The Bottom Line: If you want thriller novel, Digital Fortress is the right novel for you. However, you need a lot of time to read the whole story.

Reading fiction books are quite entertaining especially if you have enough patience reading a thick book. When a lot of novels with a good plot reach the market, it is not a bad thing to read a novel that stimulates our minds and capture our imagination.

If you want exceptional thriller novel, you should read Digital Fortress. In the story, Digital Fortress is the ultimate computer code that is powerful, dangerous and unbreakable. Ensei Tankado invented the code for the purpose of seeking revenge. Unfortunately, he did not know that the code could cost him his life.

David Becker and Susan Fletcher are the leading characters in the novel. Susan Fletcher is the head of Cryptographic Division of N.S.A., it was a part of her job to save the code-breaking machine of N.S.A. David Becker is a language professor who were assigned to take the passkey. He did not have any idea that it was a deadly task because he is not the only one who wanted the valuable passkey.

Susan Fletcher and David Becker have been engaged for six months. They are so much in love with each other, until a twist of fate happened to separate them. Becker had to search for the passkey of the computer code while Susan had to struggle to break the code, in order to save the invincible code-breaking machine and to save the agency she believes in. Did they become successful with their mission? You have to read the novel to find out.

WHAT'S GOOD ABOUT IT?

Great thriller: Digital Fortress is a techno-thriller. It guarantees to capture your interest even if you are not a computer whiz or computer enthusiast. Its breath-taking plot will hold the attention of reading every page. It shows the great intensity of the dangers that threaten the characters of the novel.

Unusual story: The story behind the characters could remind us the importance of life, love and family. Ensei Tankado is not a bad person but he was a just a victim of tragic event of his past and betrayal of his former agency. Commander Trevor Strathmore had strange wish that he couldn't have He wanted Susan would love him. Susan and David reflect the ideal couple with unusual mission. It is a good story with a lot of twist and intrigues. Some characters are clueless who are their allies or foes, which adds up to the mystery of the story.

WHAT ABOUT THE BAD STUFF?

Needs a lot of time reading it: The novel has a lot of chapters, 128 chapters to be exact. The readers should have a lot of time and patience reading the novel but it is a worthy novel.

THE VERDICT: ARE YOU A READER OF TECHNO-THRILLER NOVEL?

If you want exceptional thriller novel, Digital Fortress is the right novel for you. However, you need a lot of time and patience to read the whole story. This novel earned outstanding praises from various writers. I like Digital Fortress because it has unusual story. If you want to read another Dan Brown's masterpiece, surely you did not want to miss reading Digital Fortress.

Thank you for your time reading my review.
