The thing that appeals to me is that he really goes into detail…what’s the political economy, the social forces, the ecology of the future? And really tries to weave all those things together. It’s very nerdy, but if you like that kind of detail then it’s really engrossing.

“‘Let Me Finish’ is a superficial and ungainly book that tries to cover so many bases at once... that reading it is like watching an octopus try to play the bagpipes.” First-class shade for @govchristie’s new book by @dwightgarner https://t.co/byKtnAWh8g

Today @WIRED launches the first in a six-part series: the epic story of the takedown of AlphaBay, the dark web's largest ever criminal marketplace, by @a_greenberg (from his upcoming book, TRACERS IN THE DARK). Hi-tech detective non-fiction at its finest. https://t.co/uk4XzqXQx9
