About the author
Ben Brown
120 books12 followers Ben Brown was born in Reading, England. He struggled through school academically. Diagnosed with dyslexia meant being removed from class to attend ‘remedial” lessons. Ben did not enjoy reading and writing, and left school early to work with his father as a builder. It wasn’t until his mid-twenties that Ben persisted in teaching himself to read — and finally read his first novel.
Ben emigrated to Perth, Western Australia in 1990 where he now lives with his wife Michelle and two teenage children, Chelsea and Zac.
He planned his first novel each day while working as a bricklayer, to pass the hours. His love of scientific facts, futuristic possibilities, and fast-paced action infects his plots and writing style.

Okay, this isn't my preferred genre, but I read it because I found it on my Kindle and I was bored.
I was pleasantly surprised. The writing is solid and the story line moves along without long info-dumps. Better yet, it held my interest. The low-period of the heroin's career kinda slowed me down, but it played well anyway (I like my lead characters to be human, but strong-willed; that's why it lost a star in my rating). The premise of Nazi super-bots should have turned me away, but not this time. I loved reading the reaction of the heroin to the problems.
Summary: Good yarn, well told.

When obsession can be a force for good.
This authors books always carry a nobility of thought or action somewhere, in spite of any dreadful horrors contained in the story. This was no exception. It gives you hope; no matter the terror or idea. We should all be appalled for all the peoples treated and destroyed so cruelly. There are no sufficient words to fully describe our feeling about the Nazi concentration camps, we say it can never happen again, of course it is, and all over the world and it seems we can't stop it, we try, but man's ultimate madness always escapes somehow, to be reborn elsewhere. So when the monsters of Hitler's manipulative ideology are found to be still working on evil so ghastly that we recoil yet again, we are grateful that one FBI woman; once disgraced by her obsessive behaviour, can see what others can't and try to stop it. If only we could stop.
A good read, fast paced and as hard to put down as are all his books.
