About this listen
Before the multi-million, runaway bestseller The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown set his razor-sharp research and storytelling skills on the most powerful intelligence organization on earth—the National Security Agency (NSA)—in this thrilling novel, Digital Fortress.
When the National Security Agency’s invincible code-breaking machine encounters a mysterious code it cannot break, the agency calls its head cryptographer, Susan Fletcher, a brilliant, beautiful mathematician. What she uncovers sends shock waves through the corridors of power. The NSA is being held hostage…not by guns or bombs but by a code so complex that if released would cripple U.S. intelligence.
Caught in an accelerating tempest of secrecy and lies, Fletcher battles to save the agency she believes in. Betrayed on all sides, she finds herself fighting not only for her country but for her life. It is a battle for survival—a crucial bid to destroy a creation of inconceivable genius that threatens to obliterate the balance of world power…for all time.
Critic Reviews
“In this fast-paced, plausible tale, Brown blurs the line between good and evil enough to delight patriots and paranoids alike.” —Publishers Weekly
“Digital Fortress is the best and most realistic techno-thriller to reach the market in years... A chilling thrill a minute.” —The Midwest Book Review
"A disturbing, cutting-edge techno thriller that should galvanize everyone who sends or receives email or even dreams of navigating the Web." —John J. Nance, author of Pandora's Clock, The Last Hostage

Great story with a touch of nostalgia
In this story provides a great opportunity to learn more about the digital world from a point in the past which gives it an interesting nostalgia. A real page turner and read very well by Paul Michael.

Not the best of Brown's work.
The reading is very good, but the story and the over stretching of the seemingly obvious in a way dulls the thrill.

A classic story which brings me so many memories
A well written story by Dan Brown, I remember back in the day at my university, Digital Fortress was a must read for anyone in the tech industry, loved the characters and how they evolve during the drama. Reading Digital Fortress again after so many years brings me so many memories and also, still very accurate in relation to modern World technology.
A book that I particularly recommend to anyone.

Excruciatingly boring
The plot was predictable, but unlike other Dan Brown books it advances achingly, labouring over small details again and again despite their obviousness. As usual with most fiction works the IT references are hilariously inaccurate. This seems to be a book with no effort or research put into it.
