I bought this one on a whim just to try something different to break up my norm and, I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. This was a very entertaining read from cover to cover.
My only complaint is with the formatting of the ebook. The story is told through numerous documents/letters/textbook entries and the formatting changes for each. In print I applaud this attention to detail, but having the text formatting seemingly hard-coded on the ebook version made certain parts very difficult to read as it means you can't change your reading font (nor the size on some parts).
I'd say if you're interested in this one to give thought to the print edition, but by all means DO check it out.
Cliff is a disgruntled employee, with legitimate cause, and has set his sights on "deleting" his employer. Execution of his deletion fails, but not without some curious eyes witness to the attempt. He soon meets the owners of those eyes, a couple individuals from a mysterious school who offer him the chance to avoid jail, along with a second chance to delete his employer. Obviously he accepts, is blindly escorted to the top-secret location of this mysterious school, and thus begins his training.
The story pays close attention to two other students and their deletion goals, and is just as entertaining as Cliff's. Characters, big and small, are well realized, the crazy plans of deletion are…well, crazy, but thoroughly thought out and are so entertaining. And the happy ending put a smile on my face.
There's hint of a book 2 (aside from the cover saying Vol 1) but, honestly, this is a perfect standalone for me and I'd be more than happy if it stays that way and the author creates something else new and refreshing like he did with McMasters.
