Neil Gaiman gave me an unexpected Christmas present this year -- a
stellar review of my forthcoming novel Little Brother (a YA novel that
pits hacker kids in San Francisco against the DHS in a bid to restore
the Bill of Rights to America) on his blog. He has a few quibbles with
some of the plot elements, but closes with this:
> I'd recommend Little Brother over pretty much any book I've read
this year, and I'd want to get it into the hands of as many smart 13
year olds, male and female, as I can.
>
> Because I think it'll change lives. Because some kids, maybe just a
few, won't be the same after they've read it. Maybe they'll change
politically, maybe technologically. Maybe it'll just be the first book
they loved or that spoke to their inner geek. Maybe they'll want to
argue about it and disagree with it. Maybe they'll want to open their
computer and see what's in there. I don't know. It made me want to be
13 again right now and reading it for the first time, and then go out
and make the world better or stranger or odder. It's a wonderful,
important book, in a way that renders its flaws pretty much meaningless.
