2012 Book Review #19: Reamde

Genre: Not-so-techno thriller
Thingummies: 4

Synopsis: What starts with hackers spreading a virus through a World of Warcraft clone turns, via the Russian mob, into a globe-hopping fight against jihadists.

Thoughts: ( So, what did you think? )

This was a triumph!

Finally, finally beat Portal. Only took me a year. (I kept playing for a couple hours and then wandering off and not touching it for a month.)

...now I need to actually get around to playing Portal 2...

(Also, as more evidence why I don't usually play these things--the camera controls still make me dizzy and everytime the little robots shoot at me I nearly have a heart attack. Clearly, first person shooters are not my genre. But I like the puzzles...)
