" Kelly] Link's stories . . . play in a place few writers go, a netherworld between literature and fantasy, Alice Munro and J. K. Rowling, and Link finds truths there that most authors wouldn't dare touch."--Lev Grossman, Time "She is unique and should be declared a national treasure."--Neil Gaiman "Funny, scary, surprising and powerfully moving within the span of a single story or even a single sentence."--Karen Russell, The Miami Herald "This is what certain readers live for: fiction that makes the world instead of merely mimicking it."--Audrey Niffenegger " These] exquisite stories mix the aggravations and epiphanies of everyday life with the stuff that legends, dreams and nightmares are made of."--Laura Miller, Salon, Best Books of the Decade "A major talent . . . Like George Saunders, Link] can't dismiss the hidden things that tap on our windows at night."--The Boston Globe "The most darkly playful voice in American fiction."--Michael Chabon "I think she is the most impressive writer of her generation."--Peter Straub "Link's world is one to savor.

Good introductory book on information security
Format: Paperback
As mentioned in my review title, this is a good introductory book on information security. I would like to stress the "introductory" part since anyone who is already in the field or otherwise highly technical should probably avoid this book. Otherwise, for anyone just starting out in information/cyber security or otherwise curious, this will be a nice easy intro into an interesting subject.
