Insyte: If Suddenly You Have All the Answers... Well That Raises a Lot of Interesting Questions.

Autor Greg Kiser
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2011
www.gkiser.com inSyte is a paranormal-thriller - equal parts Chrichton, Clancy and King. It's Tampa Bay and the year is 2020. Ex-Navy SEAL Mitch Double Downing discovers how to tap into the internet with his mind. His new inSyte provides transparent access to the sum of all human knowledge recorded since hieroglyphics. More than mere information - Mitch can see into men's hearts and be all places at all times (easy in an 'always on' surveillance society with fourth generation tweets). Sort of like God. But inSyte has ideas of its own as the software exposes a politician's "divine" plan that will unwittingly slaughter millions of people. Is killing the man the only way to prevent Armageddon? The politician's daughter would probably disagree. And she happens to be the love of Mitch's life. Losing Kate would be too damn much collateral damage. At the center of the conflict is a wolf-like killer who will stop at nothing to murder the ex-Navy SEAL. And Mitch must come to grips with inSyte's dark side - a dominating addiction that soon controls his thoughts and places him on a steep slide to self destruction. "You've got a great book here. Some of the scenes were so powerful I could barely catch my breath. I love your characters and your imagination. In Cheslov you have a unique, gripping, disturbing and somewhat likeable antagonist. Like the best of villains, he has his own code of ethics. He doesn't like to see women abused - unless he's the one killing them. Every time he comes on stage, the novel's tension ratchets up." ---Susan Breen (author of The Fiction Class, featured in Reading Group Choices 2009) "Your dialogue is excellent. Your fight scenes are horrifying and terrific. I was able to follow the action and visualize it in my mind, which is quite an achievement on your part." ---Lisa Reardon (author of Billy Dead) "A bold, brazen thriller with a serious commentary on the future of information. Equal parts equal parts Crichton, Clancy and King -- spectacularly culturally prescient. As a classic merciless political operator, Cheslov] Kirill is unforgettable and chillingly, complexly rendered." --- Perry Crowe, Kirkus Reviews http: //www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/indie/greg-kiser/insyte/#review]
