It's fast-paced and doles out just enough information to keep my interest, while making the characters smart and skeptical enough to deal with some of my own potential questions (although the skepticism flies out the window pretty quickly at the end). It definitely starts turning into a bit of convoluted history and some heavy woo toward the end, but sets up a sequel with some possible world-building. Overall, it was a great read for my daily commute, but predictably, not stellar literature. It's one of those filler books I like to read when I am also reading some really heavy history or political theory, specifically because it doesn't make me think much. ( ) I had a hard time picking a star rating for this book. It's not really good enough to earn three stars, but I literally could not stop reading it, so it obviously has some level of awesomeness which saves it from the two star rating it probably actually deserves. It's insane and makes pretty much zero sense, but it's unputdownable at the same time. Book crack. This is definitely book crack. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"The first novel from iconic X-Files star Gillian Anderson and New York Times bestselling author Jeff Rovin: a science fiction thriller of epic proportions. Renowned child psychologist Caitlin O'Hara is a single mom trying to juggle her job, her son, and a lackluster dating life. Her world is suddenly upturned when Maanik, the daughter of India's ambassador to the United Nations, starts speaking in tongues and having violent visions. Caitlin is sure that her fits have something to do with the recent assassination attempt on her father--a shooting that has escalated nuclear tensions between India and Pakistan to dangerous levels--but when teenagers around the world start having similar outbursts, Caitlin begins to think that there's a more sinister force at work. In Haiti, a student claws at her throat, drowning on dry land. In Iran, a boy suddenly and inexplicably sets himself on fire. Animals, too, are acting irrationally, from rats in New York City to birds in South America to ordinary house pets. With Asia on the cusp of nuclear war, Caitlin must race across the globe to uncover the mystical links among these seemingly unrelated incidents in order to save her patient--and perhaps the world"-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
