Sci-fi readers are you ready?! First off: pay attention, it really will get you ahead. I had some troubles at first with the story, I felt lost (as stated on Amazon, like I was a step behind). It was all user error. I was to busy trying to multitask, hey it normally works well for me (but NOT with a brain befuddled by fog). Mind focused + storyline racing = I cannot put the Kindle to sleep (nor myself for that matter but I am NOT complaining).
Horror no longer scares me, "sci-fi" scares me. Why? I say it often Dean Koontz terrifies me when he bases his books on future probabilities etc. and that is where the masterful Ms. Giorgi takes us, a very possible future. The characters grip you (Dr. Montoya is a favorite) and the story sucks you in, suddenly realizing you have now reached the last page. Wait, what?! But I want more Skylar, and yes more Yulia darn it. Yup, the story is done but it was a fun ride.
The hospital scene with Lauren hit way too close to home for me. I had to put it down as my heart cried and ached. I remembered my own mad dash (only 5 weeks ago) through a hospital racing to my Mom has she breathed her last (damnit, crying again). It is a scene that too many of us have played in our lives and it was well written. Kudos.
