I recently picked this up in order to complete the series. It is a bit behind the curve now, just because of how Doctorow writes--his books are ripped from the latest blogs, the cutting edge of now that sounds like SF. Knowing this, the books are also pretty depressing. We now know that exposing Carrie Johnstone will not bring her to justice--it will only make her and her handlers mad. There are a lot of good descriptions of handling protests that ring true according to friends in Portland that have participated. Afterwords by some solid and well known activists. But it's a tough read, I have to say.
