I spent a few too many seconds thinking that famous actor Matt Dillon is a linux enthusiast before I realized that Matt Dillon the software engineer was who is being mentioned here.

It’s very possible my sheer lack of knowledge of the unix surrealism world means this has already been clearly debunked or blatantly confirmed, but I have it in my head that:

They spread freedom and unshackle others from their digital handcuffs as intended when they were created. The girl, however, is not necessarily created with this inherent will of freedom, but rather gains this will on her own after following the call from the elder to start her mission.

Thanks for posting, this is a solid review! I definitely scrolled too fast coming across it and read the title as just “Jack Into the Beanstalk” which sounded like a very different premise at first.

Definitely post a final review after you read book 3. I’m interested if it comes together as an entertaining trilogy or falls further from what you enjoyed about the first book by the end.
