reviews 's new [JPod] novel. In [JPod], the little brothers and sisters of slave away at a thinly-disguised Games in Vancouver, where marketdroids reward their slavish labor by heaping menial tasks on them, and perverting the games they make so that they're not even cool. None of these people will be a software millionaire. They are people who work sweatshop hours for lousy wages, burn out young, and go nowhere. They use Google and to scour the globe for anything to make their lives . They don't find it.
