A less-than-glowing title, perhaps, but it's very true: Utopia is not a disappointment, even if it also isn't a stunning and revelatory novel. If you like Lincoln Child, and/or techno-thrillers and mystery as genres, then you'll enjoy Utopia. What's particularly enjoyable? Novel ideas and research that was new to me (and I'm fairly nerdy) re: computer science, entertainment parks, and artificial intelligence.
