Spin State
*****
Chris Moriarty
I don't know where to start with my review. I enjoyed this book. There was a great story with very interesting characters and mostly believable dialogue.
There was more - and here's where the mostly believable dialogue might be explained...
To completely understand what's going on in this novel, you have to understand, at least a little, such things or rather, concepts an/or theories as:
- quantum physics
- genetic engineering
- memory reconstruction
- artificial intelligence ( AI and all the potentials of)
There are other terms used in Spin State, but I'm not sure if they are "real" terms or rather if they are official terms - "slipstream", "biological constructs", etc. I think by the end of the book I had at least an idea of what these terms and theories were about. I know this doesn't sound too promising of a novel that's written presumably for enjoyment and relaxation - but I also realize that there are some people who enjoy and relax by reading heavy duty science epics, theories, math equations, etc. This book would probably be great for them.
