The Silence of Six by E. C. Myers

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. 

An intense thriller of teen hackers on a mission to save the world as we know it.  Max and his merry band of "hacktivists" need to clear the name of their friend and show everyone the evils one corporation is inflicting on a global level. 

The Silence of Six is full of tech-speak, but fear not: everything is explained well and concisely.  There is never a dull moment in this story, which is full of chases, cyber spying, espionage, and excellent writing.  The plot is well-developed with a few twists and the characters are richly drawn- none more so than Evan, who we only come to know through Max's memories.

I've never read anything by E. C. Myers before The Silence of Six, but if anything else is as good as this, I'll be clamoring to get my hands on it, too. 

The Silence of Six by E. C. Myers: 4 out of 5 stars.  Available at booksellers and libraries November 2014.
