Don't want to spoil the ending but this will cause to to rethink some of your preconceived notions on cyberwar. Couldn't put it down and read it over the weekend.
Sometimes the greatest novels can be very frightening and depressing. Margaret Atwood's classic "A Handmaid's Tale" pictures a future dystopia being operated by a very militant Christian theocracy that has violently taken over the United State. We know of course of "1984", which has all but come true, and the logical extension as far as our total reliance on the internet in "Cyberspace" details the horrific collapse of the internet and a one-two punch of a pair of devastating blizzards that completely bury Manhattan and with no services of any kind, cripples NYC. The story is told through the eyes of one man and his family as they face an increasingly severe and deadly situation as NYC is literally cut off from the world with only very scant information that is totally unreliable getting through on short wave or a few remaining local radio stations. The brilliance and terrifying events described are incredibly chilling and Mather, who works in the internet security field and obviously knows his stuff, makes the reader think of a realm of horror that can happen if, such as in "Cyberstorm", events collide with several cyber terrorist groups all descending on the world infrastructure at the same time, a near war state between the U.S. and China, and the loss of all utilities, including power, sewer, water and less and less food as the attacks have shut down the freight industry and storms closed the highways. To get into more details isn't really a good idea in the interest of being a spoiler, but as we read further in, more and more consequences of the attacks and storm manifest, and the toll it takes on people's minds and bodies is terrible to read about, but Mather presents a picture that we should all give careful consideration. The book has already been a best seller, and a movie is being made based on the book. Besides being presented in a manner that the reader doesn't know the whole scope of the disaster any quicker than the primary characters, it presents very real problems with the over reliance on computer networks and so little thought to non-cyber back up protections, such as utilities and many services having systems still capable of operating without computers. This scenario isn't in the book, but my brother and I have thought about it in the past: today's cars are basically computer operated, and a skilled hacker with a VIN number could literally bring your car to a dead stop any time, any where, just by disabling the ignition system from a laptop computer. Only very old junkers and antique vehicles would be operational then. Besides a very good read, "Cyberstorm" is a modern day "Brave New World" or "1984", complete with a thorough vision, the problems that bring the story to life and possible fixes, if indeed any are available. This is a cautionary tale but one that is terribly important in our world today. An absolute must read for anybody concerned about our futures.
Cyber Storm is more of a story about a group of people who band together and try to survive in an apartment building on Manhattan Island during raging snowstorms that shut down the city - literally - the loss of electricity, lack of food and water, and freezing temperatures cause chaos in the city. It doesn't take long for roving bands of individuals to begin stealing from those who have supplies. Probably the biggest detractor to survival is the lack of accurate communication. With the web down and only a few ham radios operating, the news that is shared is mostly hearsay. There are also warnings of swine flu and people dying all over. All communications cautioned people to stay indoors and wear masks, but when all supplies are gone it's either turn over and die or brave the outdoors to find more supplies.There is speculation through the entire story as to what actually happened and who was responsible. Communicatiion is misinterpreted which cause many survivors to end their own lives. Is there an invasion? Is there still a government? Is help coming?The story bogs down in certain spots when sharing technical IT information and then rehashing the same issues over and over again. I admit that I skimmed through many of those areas. The final 5% of the story also seemed rushed while everything was explained and solved within a few pages which left me disappointed.
Mather did a great job with this tale! Dependence on the cyber world and a host of attacks combined with a horrible winter storm bring a modern, urban city to its knees and brings life and our human priorities into a focus that should serve as a reality check for us all. There were moments I cried with the characters and times when I was so frustrated. Great story!!!
This book started out with some real potential. However, I found all of the characters except the elderly couple to be annoying and somewhat stereotypical. A building in a trendy nyc neighborhood with a rich villain, a few immigrant families, a vegan couple, a useless protagonist with no practical skills, his prepper friend who decides to stay in nyc because the useless protagonist and his wife don't want to leave, a doorman named Tony (from Brooklyn, of course) who hitches his wagon to these idiots instead of simply going home, an egghead tech guru/train crash survivor who strolls in to remind us that technology is more important than common sense, and a bunch of women with little character development who make snacks, tea and bad decisions for most of the book.The protagonist was a complete clown whose stupidity was only surpassed by his wife and his friend's wife. As a woman, I was insulted by the women in this book. Are we really expected to believe that a woman with an infant and a pregnant woman with a small child would make so many poor decisions that obviously compromised their children? Really? The only strong, smart, likely-to-survive woman in the book was 90 years old.The main characters were not believable and I felt nothing for them but disgust. I live in New York and have seen more than enough to know that the morons in this book would have died. The only people who seemed capable of actually surviving were the elderly couple.The syrupy, preachy conclusion was precious. And not in a good way. I have no idea why this book has such great reviews.
Despite the title, this a survivalist book that speaks little about a cyber attack. Spoiler alert: the storm has to do with heavy snowfall rather than a cyber storm. I found it a tedious read. It is definitely mistitled. If you're into survival stories, you may like it. But even for that, there are many better stories. If you're looking for insights into cyber warfare or the specifics on how an attack is carried out, you will be sorely disappointed...like I was.
