THE DEAL

Business intrigue and invention are the themes of this novel about Silicon Valley and the creation of smaller and better computer equipment and programs. Matthew Locke wants it all; Jones wants to keep his piece of the pie. A little romance is thrown into the formula and out comes a new creation, maybe. Jim Bond presents a straightforward reading of this audiobook, emphasizing the tension of the action with his pacing. M.B.K. © AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/NOV 99]
