Anderson and Beason are both physicists, which gives their latest plenty of scientific authenticity. So if you know the difference between Feynman diagrams and scattering matrices and don't mind two-dimensional characters, this should be your superconducting cup of tea. Nobel-nominated physicist Georg Dumenco is blasted with radiation while working on a project at Fermilab?the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Illinois. What appears to be an accident is, of course, not and Dumenco's beautiful, tempestuous doctor, Trish LeCroix, recruits her former lover, Craig Kreident, crack FBI agent and Scientific American subscriber?and protagonist of Virtual Destruction and Fallout?to investigate before Dumenco succumbs. Intrigues from India, radiation sickness, a few gunshots, and a love triangle point up the importance difference between nuanced complexity and confusing complications. Views: 17

I set out to tell the story of Alto and his friends and somewhere along the way all the plans and memories I had took a twist. Instead of the juvenile adventures Alto's predicaments became realistic. What he endured came from deep places inside of me that I wasn't always willing to explore, but I knew we had to go there if the character was going to be able to recover.It is said that an writer writes to discover themselves. I can't say whether that's true or not but I can say that writing Silver Dragon was education and enlightening for me. It became so much more for me than just another book. It was a reminder that bad things happen to good people and we can either let that defeat us or we can rise up and fight back. And since we're all human, sometimes both of those things have to happen before we can move on.To paraphrase Niezstche, those who look into the abyss should know the abyss looks back. This book looked back and changed me, I hope it does the same for you. * Views: 17
