Reading this book brought back memories of reading Cryptonomicon in the late 90’s. Neal Stephenson did a great job touching on a possible future of online banking by the creation of cryptographic systems to protect commercial transactions, complete with an off shore bank. Titan touches on the same future possible edgy technology that could transform our world. The realism about the potential changes to our social structural about how socialism would and will break the social and monetary foundations is so real, we can see it taking place today.
The characters are so three-dimensional, the plot moves at a very fast pace. Loved this book!
