Comentarios para La Fortaleza Digital

[Roberto Sanhueza · Calificación: 3 de 5 estrellas]

Muy mala la lectura, me confundía el locutor haciendo voces de una mujer media idiota o trarando e imitar a un sordo hablando. Me costó terminarlo

[Benjamin Veleta · Calificación: 3 de 5 estrellas]

No es de lo mejor que hay de este autor

[katieloucks · Calificación: 5 de 5 estrellas]

So good! I love reading books like these, and Dan Brown didn't disappoint with this book

[arkrayder · Calificación: 2 de 5 estrellas]

Utter garbage. If it wasn’t because I listen to the “372 Pages We’ll Never Get Back” podcast I would have bailed on it ages ago. The writing was just horrendous. And the climax was a complete cop out.

Toxic waste! Avoid if possible. Clunky plot and bad 'twists'

[swibells · Calificación: 5 de 5 estrellas]

What can I expect from Dan Brown than a page-turner masterpiece? I admit that I didn't like Origin all that much, but Digital Fortress rocked! 


Right from the beginning, the suspense was thick. From David getting shipped all the way to Spain, to the Digital Fortress, the air was thick with suspense. 


Though there was no Mr. Micky Mouse...Er, I mean Robert Langdon in this one, Susan Fletcher was a really awesome character too. But I liked David Becker the most. Because he was so out of his comfort zone and yet he managed to succeed at every point, up until escaping from his killer. 


I read Digital Fortress in two sittings. The first time, I hadn't been all that interested. But then the second time I just couldn't let go, and I spent almost all day reading it, and finally finished it. 


I loved trying to figure out who the culprit might be. Unlike murder mysteries, here, I had to wonder who would want Digital Fortress the most. And when I finally did realize who it was, I was shell-shocked. 


Digital Fortress was adventurous, full of suspense and an exciting read! I'd definitely recommend you to read it!

Good easy read about technology of the past.

[brakketh-1 · Calificación: 2 de 5 estrellas]

No real understanding of modern cryptography rather focus on brute force attacks. Page turning thriller like many of his more famous books.

READ IN DUTCH

I believe people say this is Dan Brown's weakest book? I beg to differ. I quite liked this one, or at least the subject it was about. And I think now with all the commotion on the NSA and Snowden, it's again a hot topic. How much privacy should we give up in order to achieve safety? What is this safety?



Perfectly in Dan Brown style, there is a lot of running, shooting, (almost) killing, etc. I never really like too much of those things in my books, because it tends to become predictable very fast. Still, I've eventually read the first five Dan Brown novels, because people kept asking me whether I had already read them.

I did not Finnish this book I got about 9% before I finally gave up on it. I wanted to like it but I just couldn't find anything I enjoyed about what I read. being a bit of a geek I was interested in the cryptography aspect. sadly I moved on to another book on my kindle.

[rondoctor · Calificación: 4 de 5 estrellas]

As others have written here, Digital Fortress is silly. The plot is not believable. The puzzles are not so puzzling. The characters alternate between incredible naivety/blissful ignorance and superhero. That said, I enjoyed Brown's book. Like good science fiction, once you accept the underlying premise, the book is a good read.

[altheaann · Calificación: 1 de 5 estrellas]

Picked this off my shelf yesterday morning, 'cause I was kind of in the mood for a dumb, light thriller. And I had recently read a review where someone had said that they had "learned a lot" about Internet privacy and cryptography from the book. So, even though I hadn't really liked Brown's 2 other novels, I figured I'd give it a go.

Well, it was dumb.
You one thing that always annoys me? When an author goes out of his way to tell you that his heroes are gorgeous, fit/muscular, and at a genius-level of intellectual brilliance - but then they don't do anything to prove it.
Another thing that annoys me? Boring, unresearched stereotypes. In this book, it's the people of Spain (in general), and punk rockers. The punks were so bad I was actually laughing. It was worse than sitcoms from the 80's where it was trendy to have an episode featuring those stupid, dangerous, drug-using punks for a while. Seriously.
Oh, and there's nothing about codes or security in it that the average Internet user or person who read a book on codes as a kid doesn't know. If you have no idea what PGP is AT ALL, go for it.
There's also a bunch of total crapola about how the government NEEDS to be able to read everyone's e-mail to defeat all the insidious plots against us, and snide comments about how silly it is that housewives are worried about the government stealing their top-secret recipes. And references to civil rights activists as "fanatics." Rather offensive, really.
To give it its fair due, the denouement was fairly exciting.
But if you're interested in finding out about computer security, read Neal Stephenson's "Cryptonomicon." Now that's a good book.

Early Dan Brown, before Robert Langdon, but just as good. The main characters in this book are David Becker, professor of foreign language at Georgetown University (model for Robert Langdon?), and Susan Fletcher, brilliant and beautiful head cryptographer at the NSA and fiancé of David. The plot revolves around a presumably unbreakable code that was going to be released to the public free of charge, essentially putting the National Security Agency out of business as any message could be sent in the open without fear of being translated. David Becker goes to Seville, Spain, to try and track down the man who wrote the code to find the kill phrase while Susan works at her end to try and break the copy of the code the NSA received. This book has the same action, tension, history, geography and architecture and plot twists as I have come to expect (and enjoy) from Dan Brown. Also, there is just enough about cryptography to satisfy a math geek like me. I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

[bbbart-1 · Calificación: 2 de 5 estrellas]

It's a pretty good thriller, but once you've read one of Dan Brown's, you've read them all. Moreover, as kind of a specialist in cryptography and computer science, it's hard to not laugh at some of the ridiculous stuff Brown tells us in this story (rotating cleartext, X11-filters, FTP packet collectors, ...). I guess it must be the same for cultural history experts reading The Da Vinci code. :-)

[kenzen-2 · Calificación: 1 de 5 estrellas]

What Da Vinci Code or Angels and Demons must feel like for history scholars. If you are even slightly familiar with the technological concepts in this book it is incredibly painful to read.

[ritacate · Calificación: 3 de 5 estrellas]

Good story, better written than I expected, though slow at some points.

[spiritedtruthseeke-1 · Calificación: 5 de 5 estrellas]

IMHO... this is Dan's best ... tied with "The Lost Symbol"...

[ameise1 · Calificación: 4 de 5 estrellas]

This is a typical Dan Brown story. It's very fast-paced, the evil one is an insider and a little romance isn't left out. The key can only be found in the very last second. The story is placed in the USA as well as Spain. The BIG spy machine which is spying on emails, sms and phone calls is infected. To stop the destruction a key has to be found.The most funniest thing during the reading was that in the book everybody tries to protect the fact that NSA is able to read and listen everything and everywhere. Well, the same exclamation is actually now going around the globe. Presidents all over the world are accusing the USA for spying on their personal phone etc.. Sometimes I have the feeling that most people are really ignoramuses. Why don't they know that all those different communication mediums can be watched.

[wareagle78 · Calificación: 5 de 5 estrellas]

A riveting thriller about encryption and the world's strongest, fastest computers... and a hacker.

[ginerbia · Calificación: 2 de 5 estrellas]

This wasn't my favorite Dan Brown book. I liked DaVinci Code and Demons and Angles much better. It was too computer geeky for my taste. but it was a fast read so I stayed with it.

[marjoleinl-1 · Calificación: 3 de 5 estrellas]

This is the 5th Dan Brown book I read, and also the first book I read by him in which Robert Langdon doesn't appear.The NSA has the TRNSLTR, with which they can decode everything sent on the internet. The TRNSLTR decodes everything within a maximum of 15 minutes. But then, someone has put Digital Fortress in the TRNSLTR, which it still hasn't decoded after 18 hours. What is it? Why hasn't it decoded yet?I found on the internet it was of the books he wrote in his earlier carrier. You can see that it's the base of books like The DaVinci Code, but it isn't as developed as those books are. You can see Dan Brown has really grown with his writing. I don't think it was one of Dan Browns best books. It's not very exciting, though there were some thrilling moments in the books. It just wasn't wow, it was okay. I would recommend this book if you want to read every book of Dan Brown, or don't like to read too exciting books. But I wouldn't recommend to read this one first if you want to start with Dan Brown books, then you probably won't read his other books.

3.5 starsThe National Security Agency is a secret government agency that has a program (TRANSLTR) to decode people’s emails to watch for criminal activity. When a program comes through that TRANSLTR cannot decrypt, this poses a real problem for the NSA. It seems a former employee, who feels that people’s privacy rights are being violated, has written a program (Digital Fortress) that can encrypt email in a way that TRANSLTR will never be able to figure out. Only two people are brought in to stop Digital Fortress from hitting the market, and along with it, knowledge that the NSA has been able to read people’s private email all along.It was quite good. Maybe not quite as good as The Da Vinci Code or Angels & Demons, but still good. It’s the same style of writing, with the short chapters and non-stop action. I was able to figure out a couple of things towards the end, though, which kind of surprised me, because I’m not usually very good at that!

[chris177 · Calificación: 4 de 5 estrellas]

This techno-thriller is one wild ride through the secret world of the NSA. Dan Brown has the ability to tell an intriguing story that is frightening in its real world applications but keeps you guessing as a “Who done it.” The book follows the work of the NSA and the complex code breaking technology that is the backbone of the agency. While the book is heavy in technology it is not overly complicated to follow. The book also features a strong female lead character, Susan Fletcher, that is worthy of more stories being written about.

[ramzartso-1 · Calificación: 3 de 5 estrellas]

I liked it.

[benjamin.duffy · Calificación: 1 de 5 estrellas]

If the roundly reviled The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons are examples of Dan Brown at his most polished, you can only imagine how bad he was during his early career.

Actually, you can imagine, or you can read Digital Fortress and find out for yourself. But I don't recommend it. Where the Langdon books spill their secrets two acts too soon to anyone with a basic knowledge of French, or of Latin roots, Digital Fortress boasts a simplistic play on words that crumbles, fortune cookie-like, to anyone who knows Spanish. Yes. Spanish. Like right and left hooks from Butterbean, the plot twists come molasses-slow and predictable. Where The Da Vinci Code was at least a fun ride with some lazy narration and gaping plot holes, Digital Fortress isn't even a guilty pleasure; only a guilty purchase.

I could go on, but I won't. Let me just say, in closing, that Digital Fortress was so stupid, my ears popped every time I opened the book.

As a fast paced spy thriller that won’t require much thinking, Digital Fortress will feel familiar to any one who has read Dan Brown’s other books. When I read it several years ago I enjoyed it as a bit of junk food for my brain. However, as an audiobook I found its little foibles far more annoying.Our main characters are both supposed to be very intelligent people. but the entire plot relies on them making stupid and irrational decisions. Susan in particular comes across as a complete ditz. Her fiance, who is only pulled into the mystery because of her, ends up having all of the adventures. And even worse, when Susan finally has the opportunity to solve a code and show the intelligence we’ve heard so much about, it happens to be a code she taught her fiance and he figures it out! Basically, I ended this book wanting to punch Dan Brown in the face for making one of the weakest heroines ever. On the bright side, the narration was quite good and by far the easiest to understand of any of the narrators I’ve listened to so far.This review first published on Doing Dewey.

The story centers around a code-breaking NSA supercomputer that discovers a code that it cannot crack. Susan Fletcher is called in to try and crack the code instead, but discovers that it was written by a disgruntle NSA worker, Ensei Tankado, who plans on releasing his code algorithm to be auction and, in the event of his death, to be released for free by his partner. When Ensei dies, Susan and her fiancee must race against time to discover a way to prevent the algorithm from being released as well as discover Ensei's partner.The story is focused on cryptology and code-breaking. There are a lot of twists and turns and betrayals, though some of them felt predictable. There is talk of discrimination and how different prejudices can mold us into what we grow up to be like. Also, there is the idea that we are being monitored all the time. Overall, it was a fun read.

The most irritating book from dan brown :|

[elleceetee · Calificación: 1 de 5 estrellas]

Oh Dan Brown, how I love to hate you. It seems a universal truth that when you have run out of all of the books to read that you’ve brought with you, it is impossible to find decent reading material wherever you are. In my case, I ran out of book in Ethiopia. And, unlike Tanzania and Nairobi, I was unable to find any reasonable English language bookstore. I suppose this is because unlike Tanzania and Nairobi, English is not an official language of the country. As I don’t read, nor speak, Ahmraic, I was stuck with the selection of books found at the Hilton and Sheraton Hotels.

The situation was dire, I tell you. DIRE. My choices included a fine selection of literature aimed at the people here working with developmental organizations. There are also the requisite Ethiopia picture books to be toted home as souvenirs, and some dry travel writing about exploring the Blue Nile. Please note that I actually greatly enjoy the travel writing genre, so for me to say that it is dry, it is very very dry. There were also multiple copies of Rich Dad, Poor Dad and several books on how to trap a man. In the novel category, there were simply rack upon rack of Dan Brown books (plus one battered copy of Black Beauty – not sure where that came from …).

Shamefully, I’ve actually read most of his books. I read Angels and Demons because someone recommended it to me. Though I found his writing to be extraordinarily poor, I found the story to be engaging enough to overlook that fact. I didn’t guess the ending, and it posited some fascinating ideas about history. I read The DaVinici Code because everyone was reading it and because I liked Angels and Demons. The DaVinici Code was written equally poorly, but I noticed a lot of similarities in the plots of the two novels. But it was still an entertaining read so I figured I’d forgive it. Then, on my way to Costa Rica, I realized that I didn’t bring enough books with me for the plan ride. I went to the bookstore in beautiful Charlotte, North Carolina and picked up Deception Point, yet another Dan Brown masterpiece. The plot of this book was “The DaVinci Code Goes Arctic”. That’s when I realized that Dan Brown came up with one good plot and he’s just recycling it over and over again.

Even so, faced with the prospect of Rich Dad, Poor Dad or He’s Just Not In To You, I picked up Digital Fortress. I do think his writing is getting better, but I had the ending of the book figured out within the first ten pages. I didn’t even have to read the ending first to know what was going to happen. Maybe I’ll register Digital Fortress on bookcrossing and send it out into the world.
