À propos de ce titre
 The shocking techno-thriller that cements Daniel Suarez’s status as the heir to Michael Crichton and Tom Clancy—a terrifying, breathtaking, and all-too-plausible vision of the world’s near future.

Unmanned weaponized drones already exist—they’re widely used by America in our war efforts in the Middle East. In Kill Decision, bestselling author Daniel Suarez takes that fact and the real science behind it one step further, with frightening results.

Linda McKinney is a myrmecologist, a scientist who studies the social structure of ants. Her academic career has left her entirely unprepared for the day her sophisticated research is conscripted by unknown forces to help run an unmanned—and thanks to her research, automated—drone army. Odin is the secretive Special Ops soldier with a unique insight into the faceless enemy who has begun to attack the American homeland with drones programmed to seek, identify, and execute targets without human intervention.

Together, McKinney and Odin must slow this advance long enough for the world to recognize its destructive power, because for thousands of years the “kill decision” during battle has remained in the hands of humans—and off-loading that responsibility to machines will bring unintended, possibly irreversible, consequences. But as forces even McKinney and Odin don’t understand begin to gather, and death rains down from above, it may already be too late to save humankind from destruction at the hands of our own technology.

Avis de la critique

"Kill Decision really nails it...Daniel – wow – awesome."
—Brad Feld, Business Insider



"Perfectly blending nail-biting suspense with accessible science, bestseller Suarez (Daemon) establishes himself as a legitimate heir to Michael Crichton with this gripping present-day thriller."
— Publishers Weekly (starred review)



"This is the kind of mind-expanding novel that uses entertainment to make powerful, important points about alarming current trends; the novel as cautionary tale has rarely been better executed...Highly recommended."
— Tim O'Reilly



"Kill Decision reads like a Michael Crichton thriller..."
— Associated Press



"A confident thriller that leaves us wondering not whether its fictional premise will one day become reality, but when."
— Kirkus Review



"Daniel Suarez came out of nowhere...he self-published his first techno-thriller, Dameon, an enthralling convincing tale about a murderous AI loose on the Net. Now he has a publisher and a sequel, Freedom™. It's even better."
—Time on Freedom™



"Greatest. Techno-thriller. Period....Experts have long feared the Internet doomsday scenario; Daemon is arguably more terrifying."
—William O'Brien, former White House director of Cybersecurity and Communications Policy, on Daemon



"Daemon does for surfing the Web what Jaws did for swimming in the ocean."
— Chicago Sun-Times



"Daemon is the real deal-a scary look at what can go wrong as we depend increasingly on computer networks."
—Craig Newmark, Founder of Craigslist



“Freedom™ crackles with electrifying action scenes and bristles with intriguing ideas about a frightening, near-future world…. Daemon and Freedom™ combined form the cyberthriller against which all others will be measured.”
— Publishers Weekly (starred review)

eine super realitätsnahe Geschichte aus einer nicht sehr fernen Zukunft. Kaum zu glauben - aber vieleicht schon wahr?

Top Suarez

Einfach packendes Hörbuch, technisch akkurat und mit sehr passendem Sprecher.
Gerade für technik-affine Hörer absolut zu empfehlen!
Suarez zweiteiler Daemon/Freedom ist sicherlich noch hörenswerter jedoch momentan leider nur bei audible.com im Programm...

Wo bleiben Daemon und Freedom?!

This is a Sci-fi, and I found it great! The action was well described and not at all bland. The speaker was also good and the story is enjoyable

Highly creative story. Skilled reader

I am no expert in military and/or secret agent science fiction. But I can tell you this - this story is a blast. The protagonists are awesome; while the story unfolds, it gets more and more awesome; from the first to the last line you get a very well thought through plot; and the 'breathing', pacing and dynamic of the story is really well done.

The audio-quality of the reading is very good. I am more used to audio-drama; but this audio-book version makes me believe that audio-books can be as entertaining and gripping as well voice-acted audio-dramas.

A Blast

The best of this audioook is the performance of the narrator. The story is not convincing and simply build. Also too overloaded by military lingo and a childish exaltation about action and military operations.

In summary the story seems to be written by a former member of the armed forces, who is still brain washed by his basic military training. The author rows one action scene onto the next, almost without even trying to develop a beliebable story or characters. Almost: early in the story he tried to develop some civilian characters, but dumped them unmotivated. My impression was, he didn't know what to do with this part of the story telling and cut it off.

Two stars in total, because it was interesting enough to listen to the end. But I definitely will not spend the time to listen to it again.

Ridiculous story
