Mind's Eye by Douglas E. RichardsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Techno-thriller worth spending time with!
Protagonist gets ESP powers + some more supernatural powers because of some experiments, but has no history.
How he got the power, how it affects his life, what was his life is the story.
Many of us would have dreamt of ESPs. That is something many of us would be happy to possess. But after reading this, you might think again. The pros and cons are well explained!
Would have gave 5 star for blending technology and ESP with thriller in proper proposition. But the moment I learnt antagonist (who I have guessed for sometime) is Muslim (again), I just lost it..
Why these people are so obsessed in showing Muslims as villains? The last three four novels I read from American author featured Muslim as antagonist.
Books are reflection of lifestyle. Might be in different timeline, different perspective. But what it does is just reflect minds/mind's capability. After reading such novels, now I know why there is so much buzz around Muslims issue in America!
How can people find eternal love so easily?! Hero meets heroin by accident, saves her life and she is in love with him from there. That too he falls for the only girl he know, who he cannot (mind)read. Great!! But the other love mentioned is pretty causal. It looks normal and possible sort of story.
Technology. ESP. Thriller. Chase-run. No history Hero. Grandmaster villain. High profile people involvement (both good and bad ones). This is mixed up with romance, politics, philosophies and some funny scenes here and there.
