3.0 out of 5 stars Had to check it out...., January 24, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Fury (Mass Market Paperback)
Actually I had to purchase book #1 and #4 to read the series because someone gave me #2 and #3. In the reviews given by other writers like Stephen King, John Farris was one of the best new thriller writers...keep you on edge of your seat type. Well, I do like Stephen King though he does write in circles sometimes........John Farris is so much worse that you don't truly get into what the book is about until it's almost over. Sad thing is all 4 books in this series are written the same way, though I do have to say that book #4 was the easiest to read.

It's not a writer or series I would really recommend purchasing but if your local library has them, it would be worth checking out.

3.0 out of 5 stars Super Reader, August 6, 2007
This is a precursor to the whole Firestarter and Teek type plot. Gift psionic ability youngster wanted by extremely dodgy government agency.

In this case, however, there are two kids, and the father trying to protect his child is also a trained government killer. They have an earlier handle on the whole offensive use of weapons of the mind, too.

In other words, I wouldn't be putting my hand up and volunteering to try and bring them in.
