The Fold
by Peter Clines
Peter
Clines' TheFold
will grab you from the start and not let go until the finish. I was
really looking forward to reading this book but once I had it in
hand, I didn't have time to get to it for two weeks.
Once I IDID get to it, everything else be damned! This book is an
exceptional science-fiction thriller.
Mike
Erikson teaches high school kids but he was built to do more. He was
recruited by an old friend to take on a fascinating summer job. His
job as a DARPA consultant was to check out the “Albuquerque
Door,” a portal of sorts that will transport a person from point A
to point B almost instantly. His assessment would help his friend justify budgeting the
necessary funds to continue the project.
The
people who staff the project are less than forthcoming about what it
does and how it works. And after the last DARPA consultant returned,
he apparently went mad. But Mike is uniquely qualified to figure
things out using his high IQ and eidetic memory.
This
book grabs you quickly and then moves so far, so fast without you
really even noticing until you're faced with monsters! Let it take you along through the mind-bending
twists and turns and see where you land.
This
is really fun science fiction. It's the kind of story that will have you saying, "oh my god" and "oh wow," out loud as you're reading. Take this trip. It's totally safe.
I highly recommend this book. It was great fun!
Many
thanks to the publisher and author for the advance reader copy.
