Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a MUST-READ!
Review: I truly hope Scott Grusky's vision of the future does not come to pass. He gives us a little sugar with our medicine, though. The story is clever, entertaining, and often funny. It's a fascinating tale of where society might be headed (although I hope not).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: more relevant than ever
Review: now that scientists are plotting to put microchips in human beings, this novel is more salient and relevant than ever. i think this should be required reading for anyone who thinks of cloning, genetic engineering, and cybernetics as mere larks. the villian in the piece is a little too realistic, if you know what i mean. this is a very enjoyable book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: more relevant than ever
Review: This was a very enjoyable book about an unpleasant version of the near future. The book started off following the main characters for a few days, giving the reader a glimpse at their daily lives. Beginning with the second section, which goes back over the history that led up to this "dystopia", I found it very hard to put down. I would recommend the book highly, particularly if you have liked books like Neuromancer, by Scott Gibson.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 5 stars- no doubt about it.. this is a great book...
Review: While reading Silicon Sunset by Scott Grusky, I was shocked and horrified by many of its plotlines. If Grusky's vision and completely logical premonitions come true, the world will be a living computer application-- complete with a KILLER APP.....

Grusky, a newcomer to the Sci-Fi book world, could quite possibly be one of the greatest writers our time. Deftly intelligent and with quick-witted humor, Grusky explores the darker side of the high-technology trends.

This book will win awards this year. ***** 5 Stars
