Publisher's Summary
In the mountains of Pakistan, a high-tech mission aimed at preventing another nuke on US soil goes off the rails - with deadly results. At a Wall Street investment firm, a computer intelligence takes the first tentative steps to free itself from its digital restraints. In a basement workshop, an engineer sees visions of a god who instructs him to defend the human race - by any means necessary.
In Level Five, the debut near-future thriller by Nebula Award winner William Ledbetter, AIs battle for dominance, and nanotechnology is on the loose. And all that stands in the way of the coming apocalypse is a starry-eyed inventor who dreams of building a revolutionary new spacecraft and an intelligence agency desk jockey faced with the impossible choice of saving her daughter - or saving the world.

Excellent scifi
A thoroughly enjoyable story and performance. Twists and turns, and actually a bit thought provoking too. Really enjoyed this one.

Spy sci-fi
I greatly enjoyed earlier works by the author. this was touted as a kind of spy thriller scifi so i decided to try it. found i dont like spy thrillers. I struggled to get through it. About half way through I began to enjoy it and the last few chapters were gems. The narrator was very good. Each character had a distinctive voice.

Some good ideas
The story is interesting but the world view is claustrophobic without much depth of feeling for the pain of a planet. Characters are simplistic.
The main female character is presented as exceptionally whiny. Unrealistic and unpleasant.

Slow and boring for 90%
Struggled to finish, some good ideas with the AIs and Nanobots but very slow to get going.
