Madeline Ashby's Glass Houses
So this is billed as a story in which a near-future tech mogul and his start-up team crash land onto a mysterious island, and what’s the deal, and how will they survive. But REALLY it’s a story about one of the women there, the mogul's chief of staff, with lots of flashbacks to how she ended up here. I think the flashbacks and her narrative arc are more compelling than the island stuff, which is actually pretty weak—it feels like mis-marketing. A few interesting surprises and some less cool ones. Good summer kind of read. B+.
