Can I read this book if I have not read the rest of the series?

This book is a direct sequel to Network Effect and relies heavily on the events and character dynamics established in that novel, making it unsuitable as a starting point for new readers.

How does this book fit into the chronological order of the series?

While it is the seventh book published in the series, it takes place immediately following the events of Network Effect, which itself occurs after the events depicted in Fugitive Telemetry.
