THAT SHE desired to ask no questions Mrs. Gereth conscientiously proved by closing her lips tight after Fleda had gone to London. No letter from Ricks arrived at West Kensington, and Fleda, with nothing to communicate that could be to the taste of either party, forbore to open a correspondence. If her heart had been less heavy, she might have been amused to perceive how much rope this reticence of Ricks seemed to signify to her that she could take. She had, at all events, no good news for her friend save in the sense that her silence was not bad news. She was not yet in a position to write that she had "cut in;" but neither, on the other hand, had she gathered material for announcing that Mona was undisseverable from her prey.

The Old Things
It was hard to read this without trying to overlay real people and companies such as Jobs, Wozniak, Scully, Gates, HP, IBM, Apple, MSft, Dec, and others. Near the 2/3 mark the book does draw on the upcoming iphone type devices and near the end incorporates speech recognition, which 12 years after publication is still a ways off. The characters weren't memorable and the plot was more or less predictable. It is still better than a lot of suspense fiction that draws on hard core plot and violence, and had I read this 10 years ago, it might have rated a 4.
