While this book sounds like a thriller (which it is), this novel also has a much deeper message as to what truth really is and how it can be ignored, manipulated, and faced. One character, Prof. Allen Taylor, was very intriguing and the source of many interesting ideas on truth, honestly, and understanding, which would definitely apply to our world.
In general, this novel was a sound piece of writing. The writing was fine -- not too much description, not too much dialogue, few typos, and clear sentences. The characters were interesting and well thought out. The plot moved crisply along and often left the reader trying to guess who was on which side. By the time I was in chapter 3, I was hooked. And the ending...well, I was totally surprised!
My only complaints are (1) I want to know more about this world and the Shadow Warriors and (2) I would like to know more about some of the characters, in particular Prof. Taylor. This is listed as the first in a series, so I'm hoping the future volumes will answer my questions and expand on this world.
A thoroughly good read!!!… (altro)
