A good read
An interesting take on the nursery rhyme by introducing an action packed, fast pace hacker slant to the narrative. The writing is compelling and I will definitely be reading another of Robinson’s many stories. The only negative I have about the story is the lack of description of location and technology. I am not a sci-fi/ hacker aficionado so some explanation of how the world works and the technology that is obviously important functions would have been appreciated, but as this is a short story I don’t count this as a major drawback but simply a nice to have. Over all a very enjoyable read.
