I love this book, me and my girlfriend both bought it, i finished it much faster because im in the field of physics and grabbed my attention much stronger, but we both love the book and we highly recommend it to anybody!

A must read if you enjoyed Daemon and Freedom!

I enjoyed Daemon, freedom and kill decision. I picked this one up sometime ago but didn’t get passed page 84, fast forward a year,2,3?? And I picked it back up and could hardly put it down, really enjoyed it. I think I initially was not clear how this fit , but that was my bad. Fun stuff.

Daniel Suarez hits his fourth homerun with this book. Great read, I highly recommend it!

Solid book- first I'd read of Daniel Suarez. Definitely in the Michael Crichton Technical Thriller genre. Highlights include a plausible future state technical premise (surrounding Gravity Waves) with a slight detraction (not uncommon to authors) related to "chatty" plot building (aka plot advances found in character dialogue), etc. My biggest grievance with the book? How altogether doltish the arch-antagonist is. Without giving away plot points, I couldn't strike the vision that the arch-antagonis was, in fact, Mandark- from Dexter's Laboratory- fully grown. Everything about his unnuanced personality struck me as off, given his position within the BTC. That's unfortunate as the first portions- including the time spent in prison- were all 5 star.

At the onset, I was thinking high concept....rich...along the lines of Carl Sagan's Contact. The author initially explored multiple layers (technology and its relation to society, conciousness and self determination, etc). Disappointedly, the last half of the book turns into generic manufactured one dimensional drama.

Very well written for having lots of high tech. Great characters. Technically believable. I look forward to reading more from this writer. I highly recommend it.

I’ve read all of Daniel Suarez’s other stuff, and Influx is definitely another gem of speculative fiction. It was a pretty good book from start to finish — the only real flaw is the inevitably-shoehorned-in romance plotline. Then again, it seems no author’s content to avoid the compulsory hetero romance. Shame, but the book’s definitely still worth reading.

I picked up Daemon some years ago, when it was just published in paperback because the cover notes interested me. Thank God I did! I couldn't wait to read Freedom and have haunted the websites, bookstores and iBooks ever since, waiting for the newest release of Daniel Suarez. Influx keeps the tradition alive with science, technology, philosophy, government, human foibles and weaknesses and the strength and dignity of mankind. Read Influx, you'll love it. Then re-read Kill Decision, Daemon and Freedom slowly and maybe, if we are all very lucky, the next one will be right around the corner. We've lost Mr Clancy but a truly worthy successor is alive and well in Mr Suarez and, like all true successors, he has moved beyond the paths left by his predecessors. Keep up the good work! Thank you!
