There's a lot to like in this story about a teen trapped in 1984ish hell courtesy of the Department of Homeland Security. Accurate descriptions of technology. A believable telling of our near future. Revolting against 'The Man.' LARPing. Vampire LARPing. Vampire LARPing in San Francisco. I could go on.


The main character, Marcus, is written a little too perfect to be believable. Still, would recommend to geeky teens or teens looking for a good book written from a male POV.
