In The Girl Who Reset the Cyber World by Cliff Ratza, the Bigger-Bro conspiracies are still rocking the world. However, the organization has adopted a new strategy to divert the attention of the media by promoting rumors and other conspiracies, like accusing other countries of dominating underdeveloped countries. Another extremist group has also come up, and in unexpected twists of events, they kidnap the Supreme Court justices and force them to hold a trial, which ensures a repeat of elections. Kinslinger gets reelected. On other fronts, India's attempt at space fails horribly, but NASA's mission to Mars has been a great success, thanks to Electra's software, the Aphrodite. How will Electra's other projects turn out?

Just like the first book, Cliff Ratza did not disappoint in The Girl Who Reset the Cyber World. It is a mirror of what is happening in the world currently. I loved the diversity of issues explored, such as advancements in technology, rising intolerance, and people becoming more susceptible to conspiracies that lead to disregarding scientific facts. This thought-provoking work also got me thinking about our moral obligation to make sure advancements in technology are used for the good of humanity. Cliff was very effective in passing on the intended message. The characters were well-developed, and the steady-paced narration kept me intrigued and entertained. The vivid descriptions of events and places also added to the overall beauty of the book. I am looking forward to reading something else by this talented author.

In the throes of her most demanding task, combating climate change, she wades through perilous locales worldwide with the aid of Indira's androids.

This is not my first rodeo in the Reset series by Cliff Ratza, and having read The Girl Who Reset the Lightning Brain, I was really looking forward to The Girl Who Reset the Cyber World. Ratza did not disappoint. What I most enjoy about the Lightning Brain stories is the attention to social issues. Electra can run circles around scientific, technological, and ecological issues, and she often does, but it's the sociology that I like best. There's a scene where Ratza incorporates elements of diverse cultures, including Native American tribes, Chinese minorities, and international relations, leaning into identity, belonging, and cultural preservation in a rapidly changing world. Electra's engagements with tribal leaders Dyani Hache and Johana Maipetel provide indigenous perspectives in shaping future socio-economic developments, as does the later examination of global power dynamics and the transition between dominant world orders. Overall, this is another tightly-written, introspective, and intelligent novel and I'm here for whatever else Ratza puts out next.
