Fiction. Suspense. Thriller. HTML:

From bestselling comic-book franchise writer Charles Soule comes a clever and witty first novel of a twentysomething New Yorker who wakes up one morning with the power to predict the futureâ??perfect for fans of Joe Hill and Brad Meltzer, or books like This Book Is Full of Spiders and Welcome to Night Vale.

Knowledge is power. So when an unassuming Manhattan bassist named Will Dando awakens from a dream one morning with 108 predictions about the future in his head, he rapidly finds himself the most powerful man in the world. Protecting his anonymity by calling himself the Oracle, he sets up a heavily guarded Web site with the help of his friend Hamza to selectively announce his revelations. In no time, global corporations are offering him millions for exclusive access, eager to profit from his prophecies.

He's also making a lot of high-powered enemies, from the President of the United States and a nationally prominent televangelist to a warlord with a nuclear missile and an assassin grandmother. Legions of cyber spies are unleashed to hack the Siteâ??as it's come to be calledâ??and the best manhunters money can buy are deployed not only to unmask the Oracle but to take him out of the game entirely. With only a handful of people he can trustâ??including a beautiful journalistâ??it's all Will can do to simply survive, elude exposure, and protect those he loves long enough to use his knowledge to save the world.

Delivering fast-paced adventure on a global scale as well as sharp-witted satire on our concepts of power and faith, Marvel writer Charles Soule's audacious debut novel takes readers on a rollicking ride where it's impossible to predict what will ha… (más)

Non è una brutta lettura, la storia è carina... però non è indimenticabile, sia nei personaggi, forse sono resi meglio i cattivi, che in quello che succede... l’azione diventa avvincente da metà libro, la seconda metà si legge volentieri, ha anche un buon ritmo, la prima metà francamente mi stava spingendo ad abbandonarlo... quindi se lo volete leggere tenete duro per circa 200 pagine 😉 ( )

DNF. I stopped cold at 20% when a name is used by someone who for sure knows better. There's no reason for it in-scene. If you have smart characters, let them be smart! Grr. ( )

Original story, 3.5 stars. If wasn’t for the middle which just seemed to drag on and on, this would be bumped to 4-4.5. ( )
