A 15-yo boy finds himself in a white cube-shaped room. Empty. No doors, windows, furniture. Total silence. Except for a an Alexa-type voice named Alice. Alice responds to the following simple commands: "show me", "what is", "where is", "open", and "close".

At first the boy is in a bit of a panic so he keeps asking questions that Alice is not authorized to answer, such as: "who am I", where am I", and "why am I here". Eventually he calms down and starts giving Alice commands she can follow, such as "Open Google," which opens up a whole world of other command opportunities.

I was sucked in the instant he discovers "Eyestream" and creates himself a username and Gmail account. I wish the author had incorporated more of that into the story, actually.

Random stuff I liked but I won't go into any details as I don't want to spoil the plot or anything:

There are LOTR references.
Driverless smart cars and drones.

Many reviewers had major issues with the last chapter. I was so sleep deprived I realized I was completely zoned out by the end of the book and had to reread the last chapter this morning with fresh eyes and a fresh brain. The last several chapters, actually. They're short. It's a YA book. Anyway, the conclusion of the book made perfect sense to me. Very SciFi and philosophical so it took a few brain cells to process, but yah, I get it.

Ein spannender IT Thriller und ein entsprechend ungewöhnliches Ermitterteam. Vier Personen verschwinden im realen Leben spurlos, die nur eine Gemeinsamkeit haben: sie alle haben das selbe Computerspiel gespielt, welches jedoch überaus erfolgreich ist und von Millionen Menschen gespielt wird. Es beginnt eine spannende Recherche. Da Karl Olsberg als Leiter dieser Sonderermittlungseinheit Internet einen Kommissar wählt, der sich selbst im IT Bereich nur marginal auskennt und sich daher von seinen chaotischen, aber liebenswerten Mitarbeitern manche Sachverhalte erklären lässt, ist der Roman nicht übermäßig technisch geschrieben und ist andererseits auch für IT "beinahe-Laien" nie langweilig und gut nachvollziehbar. Das etwas überraschende Ende ließ auf Folgebände schließen - was inzwischen erfolgt ist, es gibt einen zweiten Fall um diese spezielle Ermittlereinheit.… (altro)
