Writing quality is often perceived to be less important for 'genre' books, where plots and settings play a more important part. But even a 'genre' book needs to have a modicum of quality. Sadly, 'Digital Fortress' does not. It's the debut novel of Dan Brown that has been re-issued due to the phenomenal popularity of the [[''The Da Vinci Code]] '' and it is a blatant, mercenary and seemingly successful attempt to discount that popularity and generate some more revenue from a an earlier effort.
'Digital Fortress' is a thriller and thus I'd better start with a bit of plot. The plot is just about the only saving grace of the novel, and the factor that earns it its only star above one.
