From Booklist

Gr. 7-10. In late-twenty-fourth-century London, a secret government agency wants to destroy the Hex, young human mutants with supercomputer minds, but it hasn't reckoned on 15-year-old hacker Raven and her brother, Wraith, a former ganger, who are searching for their long-lost sister. With the help of a street kid named Kez and Ali, a spoiled teen whose Hex powers are just awakening, Raven and Wraith locate a highly secret facility that conducts unspeakable, illegal experiments on children who carry the Hex gene. The action is nonstop as Raven whizzes through the Net, setting up false identities and cracking top-secret security codes. The computer machinations and the sheer excitement of the occasionally brutal adventure will draw a lot of readers, even those who aren't necessarily computer savvy. It's a good start for this thriller noir series, which is imported from England. Sally Estes

5.0étoiles sur 5 A TOTALLY AWESOME BOOK!!!, Oct. 20 2003
Hex is an amazing sci-fi trilogy that will keep you enthralled from the very first page. In the late 21st century, scientists created the Hex gene to improve human knowledge of computers. The project was later abandoned, but mutants with the gene, known as Hexes, continued to be sought out and exterminated.
Years later, Raven, a Hex and possibly the most dangerous teenager in the world, along with her brother, Wraith, travel to London in search of their younger sister, Rachel. There they meet Kez, a streetrat, and Ali, a popular and rich girl who has just discovered that she is a Hex. Soon the group becomes engaged in a dangerous mission that could cost them their lives.
Containing interesting characters with distinct personalities, excellent descriptions, and an imaginative portrayal of the future, Hex is one of the best science fiction books you'll come by and the fitting start to a great series.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Four out of five isn't bad, Mai 26 2003
Par vicki (Near London, UK) - Voir tous mes commentaires
I read all three books in the trilogy over a year ago and have recently come to pick them up again. The best feature of the book is the idea, I love reading sci-fi books that don't actually feel sci-fi - the books that I enjoy explaining the plot to friends and family. The reason I didn't give the book five stars was because there wasn't enough romance, and there is always room for romance - where are we without it? Also I would have loved to have more information about the way of life that far ahead into the future, on a more day to day level. The last reason is because i didn't like Raven, although i know why she was cold and heartless I think hope goes a long way but i never felt she would change - it is definitely a first for me to love a book and not love the main character. Despite this the book left me wanting to find out more so it definitely earned four stars.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Hackers, Mars 27 2003
Par amy (Adelaide, Australia) - Voir tous mes commentaires
if youve seen the old movie hackers, then you'll love this. I love the dysfunctional family life of brother and sisters, the way the main character is a female, who feels alienated from the world around her because everyone else feels inferiror to her talents. Its a well written series, ive read all three hex books, and i was compleatly satisfied...hmmm, well it woul dhave been good if there was a little romance, but you probably cant have that. You fall in love with Raven, and hate the people she hates, you find them utterly annoying :D its a gotta read
