As a life long fan of the science fiction genre, I was blown away by Infoquake and expected a great follow up in Multireal. David Edelman does not disappoint. The tone of the novel becomes significantly darker after Nash was injected with black code and went on the run. The revolutionary concepts of Multireal are fleshed out and we are treated to new intrigues with the governing Council for Defense and Wellness and the Bio/Logics programming industry. If you are a fan of Asimov or Vinge, pick up Infoquake, and then pick up Multireal. I am waiting with baited breath for the 3rd installment to the trilogy.
