pickWhat an amazing and strange book. If you like science fiction then I‘d highly recommend this as something fresh and new (at least to Western audiences). Take a historical beginning and lead into a huge scientific mystery creating distress amongst the scientists of the world, insert a jaded police officer, a wide eyed physicist, a VR game and the creators of a potential world ending catastrophe - then mix it up violently!
Centique There‘s quite a lot of physics in here - I couldn‘t follow all of it, but I definitely learnt something! 🤓🧐 6y

Reggie Wow!!! Sounds intriguing. 6y
Centique @Reggie there was even a scene which made me put my hand over my mouth in horror. You wouldn‘t have raised one eyebrow though! 😂😂 6y
Reggie I liked how you said “and then mix it up violently.” Made me think of a blender, lol, but really how some books do a really good job of crescendoing multiple angles into this awesome moment. You make me wanna read this. And after The Laws of the Skies I don‘t even know who horror-Reggie of yesteryear is anymore. I might just squeeze my eyes real tight.😣. Lol 6y
Centique @Reggie it‘s changed you permanently! Eek! 😬 I don‘t know whether you‘d like this or not. It‘s sci fi and mystery - lots of explaining rather than lots of action - but I think you‘d enjoy the kind of philosophy it reveals as it goes - really thoughtful politically by the end of it.

Rissreadswithcats I was just scrolling through this book‘s reviews and I came across yours. You are such a ‘wide‘ reader, you try anything! I want to be more like you! 😘 5y
Centique @Rissreads oh you are so lovely! Meanwhile I find I am never “on top” of any genre and what the latest, best books in it are, because I read too many genres! 😂😂But I don‘t read horrors or thrillers or true crime - can‘t read everything 😉 5y
