Resumen del Editor
In this contemporary thriller, National Book Award Finalist and New York Times best-selling author Paolo Bacigalupi explores the timely issue of how public information is distorted for monetary gain, and how those who exploit it must be stopped.
Everything Alix knows about her life is a lie. At least that's what a mysterious young man who's stalking her keeps saying. But then she begins investigating the disturbing claims he makes against her father. Could her dad really be at the helm of a firm that distorts the truth and covers up wrongdoing by hugely profitable corporations that have allowed innocent victims to die? Is it possible that her father is the bad guy, and that the undeniably alluring criminal who calls himself Moses - and his radical band of teen activists - is right? Alix has to make a choice, and time is running out, but can she truly risk everything and blow the whistle on the man who loves her and raised her?

Four friends, recent college graduates, caught in a terrible job market, joke about turning to kidnapping to survive. And then, suddenly, it's no joke. For two years, the strategy they devise - quick, efficient, low risk - works like a charm. Until they kidnap the wrong man. Now two groups they've very much wanted to avoid are after them - the law, in the form of veteran state investigator Kirk Stevens and hotshot young FBI agent Carla Windermere, and an organized-crime outfit looking for payback.

From Dan Wells, author of the New York Times best-selling Partials Sequence, comes the first book in a new sci-fi-noir series. Los Angeles in 2050 is a city of open doors, as long as you have the right connections. That connection is a djinni - a smart device implanted right in a person's head. In a world where virtually everyone is online 24 hours a day, this connection is like oxygen - and a world like that presents plenty of opportunities for someone who knows how to manipulate it.

But then, she also didn't expect that shooting him would land her in the crosshairs of a Magic Enforcement Agency task force, who wants to know why she killed their lead snitch. The more Prospero learns about the dangerous new potion the MEA is investigating, the more she's convinced that earning a spot on their task force is the career break she's been wanting. But getting the assignment proves much easier than solving the case.

My best friend Basia dragged me to the beach for her idea of a vacation. All those annoying people, sand in embarrassing places - not exactly R & R for a girl who doesn't like the sun, the ocean, or bathing suits. I couldn't wait to get back to work. But things started looking up when I ran into Elvis and Xavier Zimmerman. We discovered we had a lot in common: gaming, anchovies, hacking.

Good story but a little predictable. I chose the book because of the author; not the story line. Check out his other works.

Interesting idea, but kind of silly
The basic idea of the book is great. The execution of the story just doesn’t really make sense.

Engaging
This is an adult-themed novel despite speaking through the perspective of a teenage character. The author speaks truth to power through the vehicle of fiction. A good and thought-provoking listen.

Great read
What or who is behind big corporations? Loved the story and its clever ideas.

Major disappointment
After really enjoying The Water Knife, The Doubt Factory was a major disappointment- slow and strident at the same time, and very frustrating. The frustration came because the story was predictable yet very slow in getting around to telling the reader what the reader figured out pages - chapters - earlier.

The paranoia was distracting.
A factual account would be more interesting. This fictional account was just boring and predictable since the reader learns very quickly that companies are evil, will always be evil and never change. So every place that you expect possible plot twists just turns the same corner. Just being slightly more realistic, and acknowledging that sometimes there actually are cases of drug misuse and inappropriate off-label uses that result in injury and death, would be more interesting. BTW, not all pharma are multi-billion dollar companies either. There are some very small pharmaceutical companies who are damaged by the lawyers making false claims on the other side. There was slight mention of this, lawyers on both sides win big no matter what - evil?

Never stops whining
Endless, numbing, moralizing passages that finally made me give up 6 hours in and start skipping forward. Hoped it was just a portion of the book but it wasn’t. Big fan of the author, but this was a weak, predictable work that isn’t worth the time.

Teenagae Novel.
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
The first couple of novels by Bacigalupi were okay, but this one is a teen novel for high school students. It doesn't help that it was set in a high school environment, and read by somebody who sounds like they're in high school, but I was expecting some sort of sci-fi literature or something, not a novel concerned with school cliques and family arguments around the dinner table.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
I should've done my research and looked at other books which Emma Galvin had narrated, and I would have seen mostly teen books and romance novels. Though the thought of a Jewish teen narrating a romance novel is beyond me.
