Comments
Hey Guys. Sounds like you were enjoying the beer. If you are liking the "How to Steal and Identity" book, you should check out the second book of that series, "How to Own a Continent." It is the same type of book with multiple authors but I think it was MUCH better written. There was a huge number of grammatical and spelling errors which made the Identity book seem very rushed to print. The Continent book is also much more technical with all the hacks that take place. It precedes the Identity book and will give you a better understanding of what is actually happening with some of the characters. I was disappointed when I finished reading the Identity book since I had already read the Continent. If you didn't know already, there are three books in the "Stealing the Network" series.
The quality of the audio was better this time...but still could use some work.
