5.0 out of 5 starsA Compelling Factual-Fiction Page-Turner Without a Single Flaw.
By Steve Gibson on September 18, 2012
Format: Hardcover
Like so many of this terrific book's early reviewers, I have known Mark for many years. (Mark is a celebrity of significant note within the Computer industry.) But I only knew that Mark could write world-class code. I had no idea that he could also write world class novels. And being artful at one certainly doesn't suggest any strong talent for the other. So being very picky, I worried when Mark sent an early copy of his first novel, "Zero Day". I wanted to like it and worried that I might not. So I'll just say that I wasn't the least bit worried, I was delighted, when he sent an early copy of novel #2.

If you haven't yet read "Zero Day" you don't really need to, but I loved that Mark told this second story through the eyes of the two protagonists whom he introduced and developed throughout his first work of fiction. So by all means, click the purchase button above, but if you haven't already read "Zero Day", why not begin at the beginning?

Today, everyone understands that modern "connected" life requires some concern for online privacy and security. If you know very little about the details of how bad things happen to people online, you'll find Mark's stories compelling from that standpoint: They explain this clearly and intelligibly, wrapped around exciting narratives that bring those details to life. And if, on the other hand, you know your way around computer security, you'll find Mark's stories not only compelling but also technically perfect.

I am so glad that Mark decided to share his imagination and storytelling talent with the world. Once you have read Mark's novels I'll bet you find yourself recommending them to others as well. I certainly have.

5.0 out of 5 starsMicrosoft Technical Fellow releases Trojan Horse
By cek on September 4, 2012
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
Disclaimer: Mark is a former colleague of mine at Microsoft. He gave me an autographed hardcopy of Trojan Horse a few weeks ago (enabling me to cancel my pre-order here on Amazon).

I am a huge fan of 'noob' fiction authors and will generally give them one chance. With Mark's first book, the prequel to Trojan Horse, called Zero Day I was won over. While Zero Day started a little slow and had a few plot issues, it was a seriously good first novel. Part of that was the technical depth and resulting plausibility that comes from the fact that Mark truly is one of the software wizards of our time. But he's also a solid writer.

Trojan Horse demonstrates that Mark has been paying attention to his writing mentors and the feedback he's gotten. It is, from a writing perspective, a really, really solid work. If you didn't know this was only his second novel you'd be surprised after reading it.

From a story perspective, I'll just say this: I started reading it at about 4pm and couldn't put it down until I finished it at about 2:30am the next day. It is exciting, intriguing, and technically compelling. Plus it actually has a plot that is carefully crafted from start to finish.

If you are in the "industry" and are not already scared enough about cyber-warfare Trojan Horse will push you over the edge. If you are just a fan of tech-thrillers you'll likely very much enjoy this book...and then you'll go make sure you have solid anti-virus software installed on your notebook computer and you are using strong passwords....

5.0 out of 5 starsRipped off from next year's newspapers...
By Dennis Batchelder on September 15, 2012
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
Trojan Horse continues the adventures of Jeff Aiken and Daryl Haugen, whom we met in Zero Day. This time they're swept up in the middle of a US/Israel vs. Iran/China vs. United Nations secret cyber battle, and their bravery and considerable wits are required to prevent not only their own deaths, but Iran's emergence as a nuclear power.

Russinovich, as before, is able to cast a detailed vision of the malware ecosystem into a gripping and thrilling tale. There's enough suspense to keep you reading, and enough twists and turns to keep you guessing.

And he gets it right. Since publication just a few weeks ago, the newspapers are already revealing the same kind of intrigue between Iran and China that Russinovich wrote about. Which leads me to this: either Russinovich took a ride on a time machine, or he did a great job at projecting. My bet is on the former: he's clever enough to have invented one, and wise enough to keep it secret from us mere mortals.

Bravo, Mark! I'm looking forward to #3.

5.0 out of 5 starsCould this really happen in real life?
By Norm Goldman VINE VOICE on September 13, 2012
Format: Hardcover
Author: Mark Russinovich
Publisher: Thomas Dunne Books (St. Martin's Press)
ISBN: 978-1-250-01048-3

If you are following the media concerning Iran's quest for a nuclear bomb and the Stuxnet malware, you are going to devour Mark Russinovich's most recent tome Trojan Horse: A Novel.

For those readers not familiar with Stuxnet, basically it is a complex and clever worm that was discovered in July 2010 when it apparently targeted a series of Iranian organizations with the target widely suspected to include the uranium enrichment infrastructure. The worm is so potent that many experts believe it has the capability of bringing industrial society as we know it to a grinding halt. It is considered to be the largest virus ever unleashed.

Trojan Horse takes off when Franz Herlicher, a United Nations official based in the Office for Disarmament Affairs in Geneva emails a report to another official in London, England containing information concerning the progress of the Iranian nuclear program, however, what arrives is an altered document.

Apparently, the attached email document was copied to the intruder's system, studied and modified, while at the same time making no modifications to Herlicher's system so it can't be discovered. Even the digital signature had been suspended and eventually wound up on the modified document. Very clever and scary at the same time! Yes folks, think about it. Could a nasty piece of code give access to your documents and permit them to be altered?

The original document contained very sensitive information that confirmed that Iran was about to detonate an atomic bomb and it spelled out where and when it was to occur.Read more ›
