Dark Scriptorium: The Sorcerer's Spell

by Troy Daniel Morris

I’m coughing up blood. My hands are shaking. The infection is spreading.

And in just over an hour one of the largest wiretap cyber-attacks in history will take place.

For years I’ve eluded detection. The FBI, the corporations, and the public were my enemy. Anonymity was my only friend.

But I made a mistake when covering my tracks earlier today. My work, my life—everything that I've accomplished—will be completely exposed.

I am going to lose everything.

Reviews

I received this book for free from a Goodreads Giveaway in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed this little story - a glimpse into the mind/life of a hacker. I enjoyed how the hacker was likened to a wizard, his codes as his spells, his tablet as his grimoire. The illustrations were a nice touch.
Short stories tend to frustrate me though - I'm left wanting more.

Hmmm, I was expecting something more, but it's not bad. A quick read, with a story I'd like to know more about.
