My review:
This is an interesting and different kind of suspense. I really liked the focus on where advances in science are going and the implications for our world. It was definitely interesting to think about. I'm not a big fan of illusionists, but it was interesting to read how some of the tricks are done and the work that goes into a large show and I liked that it wasn't a big focus of the book. There's a lot of action and I liked how this group of characters worked together to figure out what was happening. I liked Jevin, but related more to the other characters in the group, especially his girlfriend. I also really liked the computer expert and her great kids and the quirky conspiracy theorist who distrusts the government. I haven't read the first book and I did sense I might be missing something relating to the relationships, but the story itself stands alone. It can get a little descriptive and gross, so just be aware. If you're looking for suspense that's a little different, check it out!
I received this book free from Revell in exchange for an honest review.
