Reviews

[Glenna Mcneal]

This book kept me guessing through the whole story as to how it would turn out. Such a realistic story that could very easily come true in this day and age. The issue to me is not whether or not this type of fiendish plot could occur, but when it will occur. We've got within our reach a vast number of tools that could result (and has resulted) in to create these types of monsters--ones that we fool ourselves into believing we have control. Anyone who likes a fictional book that sits on the fringes of reality will enjoy this book.
