FREEDOM TM connects seamless to its antecessor DAEMON. While DAEMON had a relatively open end, FREEDOM TM brings all open ends together. You shouldn't start with FREEDOM. Read DAEMON first. If you liked it, you'll like FREEDOM. If not, probably not. FREEDOM surely doesn't read like a sequel, that was just overhasty thrown after the main book to make money. On the contrary: though I could have accepted DAEMONs open end, but after reading FREEDOM I'd say those two books are actually one.
I don't want to talk about it's contents, for it would spoiler the end of DAEMON.
FREEDOM is as intelligently written as DAEMON. It expects a intelligent reader. When policemen or soldiers talk, there is not necessarily an idiot present, asking all the questions, the reader might asks himself. Acronyms are still not explained. The book aims for a technology-aware audience. Or at least someone who can use google. Anyway, the story doesn't depend on understanding every bit of military&techno-babble.
FREEDOM continues to construct a world order after the crash of capitalism. Still it's basically a techno-action novel with a philosophical message. As with the matrix, you shouldn't think to much about it. You can examine two or three levels of consistent supporting background, but after that it becomes pure vague fiction. So it's quite nice to read, like the matrix is nice to watch. The new society DAEMON/FREEDOM advocates, looks only so preferable because it is styled this way. Just like communism reads so well and lives so bad.
DAEMON was rather focused on computer issues. FREEDOM addresses more general problems, like loss of biodiversity, financial powers ruling or blackmailing governments, insane but generally accepted consequences of pure capitalism and too much power in to few hands while keeping its information scientific base.
After all DAEMON/FREEDOM are very cleverly composed, well written and seriously researched. In my opinion it's much more solidly researched than The Swarm (Frank Schätzing), which got a lot of praise for its scientificness.
What was true for DAEMON is still true for FREEDOM. It has a lot of gore and brutality in it. But other than patriot novels like those of Tom Clancy, the moral dilemma is always present throughout the story. So it leaves the reader and the fictive characters many choices to make.
