Great Pacing!
Reviewed: 03-06-25
This is my first Kara Thomas book and it will definitely not be my last. There was a lot going on with this story, and there was never a time I felt confused or lost. The author did an amazing job of maintaining the pace and keeping me intrigued. Plenty of bread crumbs dropped along the way, along with plenty twists and turns. I had to pick my jaw up off the floor a few times, the biggest being at the end. In fact my jaw is still on the floor while I type this. I guarantee this book will be living rent free in my head for awhile. In fact I plan to make sure more folks read this, so that I can discuss it with them. I felt some of the wild antics done by the characters perfectly walked the line between believable drama and over the top drama. I seriously feel like this was something that could've been "ripped from the headlines". I will be recommending this to all my mystery and thriller lovers!

Story
Zachary Quinto - best known for his role as the Nimoy-approved Spock in the recent Star Trek reboot and the menacing, power-stealing serial killer, Sylar, in Heroes - brings his well-earned sci-fi credentials and simmering intensity to this audio-exclusive novella from master storyteller John Scalzi. One day, not long from now, it becomes almost impossible to murder anyone - 999 times out of a thousand, anyone who is intentionally killed comes back. How? We don't know.

This was a great sci-fi thriller. Part of the reason it was so good is because I could see it really happening in our society. Little too close to home.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to connect with any of the characters but I do feel it was more me than the author. The writing was good, the pacing was good. All around it was a decent book.

This is the first book in the series that was recommended to me by a friend. I think this was a great first book. Just enough action to grab my attention and keep me wanting to read. The author shared enough about the plot snd characters to make me excited to read book two. I love this genre and anticipate really enjoying this series .
