'Digital fortress' is one among the few writings of the controversial writer of the Da Vinci Code 'Dan Brown'.It is one book which will make you flip like through the pages like a nutcase and will give you goosebumps.Indeed it is a true thriller.The suspense that slowly builds up through out the book,comes to a thrashing end at the ending.And i think this is what makes this book so much more exciting.It is one of the best books i have ever read and in my opinion it is even better than all other books of Dan Brown,even better than the controversial two.
The plot is created surrounding NSA and its finest decrypting machine.The problem arises when this machine fails to decrypt a message from the Japanese guy Ensei Tankado.Then NSA puts Susan Fletcher to look through the problem,as it becomes a vital one:Ensei Tankado threatens to make the code public by selling it to the highest bidder. David Becker, a professor and Susan's boyfriend is sent to locate the key to Spain when Ensei Tankado dies.Thus the story rolls on.Finally the worst fears of the NSA becomes true as they figure out that the message is actually a dangerous virus which entered the machine as the firewall was switched off to let the message in.
Though the context is complex one does not need to be an expert in those sectors to enjoy the book, that's the beauty of it.
It is a marvelous novel and if you haven't read this yet you have truly missed out on a lot.Happy Reading! Thrillers.

Well, I already know that Dan Brown always brings us a book with thrilling anticipation building throughout the story and an amazing finish....but if you say that this book was even BETTER than The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons....man, this book must be really SOMETHING.
lYou truly have a different taste...to me this one is one of his weakest works. I would agree that when they were trying to decipher the code for stopping the virus is exciting but thats about it. It has nothing else. A disapointing book...a really lame plot...no offence to u samia..:)
what do mean there is nothing else,personally what i felt was that da vinci and a&d are famous because of the gossip,i am not saying they aren't any good they are great as well but i thought digital fortress was better.the suspense is so exciting and the plot,you no nuclear attack on pearl harbor and everything ..i loved it!
