SINGULARITY by Steven James is an intense read, not for the
faint of heart. The second, much anticipated
book in the Jevin Banks Series, SINGULARITY was definitely worth the wait.
Picking up where PLACEBO left off, Jevin Banks once more
finds himself up against forces even bigger than he could imagine. When an illusion gone wrong turns out to be
murder, Jevin is determined to find out who wanted his friend dead and
why. Each new piece of information Jevin
unearths, unleashes even more questions asking why and who. Top secret testing, Area 51, government connections,
military involvement, Mexican drug cartels, and the seedy backstreets of Las
Vegas are just some of the threads Jevin must weave together in order to find
out what kind of testing is going on, and why so many people are after it.
I can’t even begin to describe some of the mind-bending scenarios
and situations Jevin and his cohorts get themselves into. Jevin, Charlene, Xavier, and Fionna work
seamlessly as a team to find out the truth.
I enjoyed seeing the bonds grow stronger between this foursome. Without question you know they would do
anything for each other. Of course,
being a woman, I would’ve liked to see Jevin and Charlene’s relationship develop
at a quicker rate, but knowing he is still struggling with the loss of his wife
and children is reason enough for Mr. James to take the slow, methodical approach.
SINGULARITY is an incredibly mind-stretching novel that’s
not only entertaining, but thought provoking as well. You can’t help but wonder about the
advancements of research going on today, and where it is scientist hope to one
day land with their discoveries. It’s
chilling to imagine.
