Tech thriller ‘Daemon’ rises from the underground

Excerpt from article:
You may never have heard of Daemon author Leinad Zeraus, but get ready to hear a lot about Daemon author Daniel Suarez.
A computer systems consultant and fan of computer games, Suarez self-published his debut techno thriller in 2006 using a pseudonym he created by reversing the spellings of his first and last names.

Thanks to Daemon’s growing underground popularity with techies and bloggers, followed by an April 2008 Wired magazine article about Daemon’s snowballing fan base, Suarez got a two-book contract with a major New York publishing house. Dutton will publish Daemon on Thursday.
