Book Description

July 24, 2009




Nysa is an up and coming DNA retrieval expert well known in the scientific community for her advances in the technology used in the field. After being recruited to work on a secret project by an extraordinarily wealthy and mysterious benefactor, Nysa is moved to a hidden lab outside Denver, Colorado. Isolated from the world and forbidden from contact with anyone outside the facility, she is unaware of the strange occurrences that begin to plague the planet. Her fiance Alastair becomes concerned about her welfare and, with the help of his father, begins a frantic search for her. They soon come to realize that their quest is producing more questions than answers, and some very unsettling questions at that.

Only one person, the silent man financing the operation, knows the true nature of the experiment. Although unaware of his true identity, Alastair comes to realize his foe will stop at nothing to see the experiment through to it's completion.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fast and Compelling, July 8, 2010
This review is from: Days' End (Kindle Edition)
What would happen if advanced DNA splicing and cloning techniques fell into the wrong hands? Headhunted for a project she knows little about, scientist Nysa becomes an unwitting accessory.

Days' End is a fast and compelling read with a shocking but satisfying ending.

This is probably just me, but it took me a little while to work out what the POV/first person switch at the end of the early chapters was all about. It didn't detract from the story, though, and overall it was a most enjoyable read, not to mention excellent value.

4.0 out of 5 stars Finally! Unoffensive Christian Context, December 13, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Days' End (Kindle Edition)
Enjoyable read; takes a few chapters to understand the pattern of the chapter endings; mildly predictable outcome, but very engaging story. Not preachy...I was ready to be offended, but wasn't. I'll read more of this author if his "literary" context sustains the boundaries of this present work.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book I enjoyed from cover to cover, August 20, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Days' End (Paperback)
I am an avid reader and Sci-fi books are my thing. I watch the Sci-fi channel and am a true-blue "Trekie" so this science fiction thriller was right up my alley. My mother was the one that told me that I should read this book, because she knew I would like it because it is not only Sci-Fi, but is set in my home state of Colorado. I always look for intricate details in a story and even the interesting names of the characters drew me in to the storyline. I have a great appreciation of the author's knowledge of scientific method and the weaving of biblical symbolism kept me so involved, I couldn't put it down after I started it. The story is a very flowing read and does a great job of bringing the characters to life and made me actually care about their outcome. This book is one that every Sci-fi reader should add to their library. --Troy
