This review is from: The One and the Golden Circle (Paperback)

Imagine being one of those people that can't seem to pay attention when they try to read something. Well I am one of those people. I heard from a friend that this was a really well written book and that it would keep me interested. As soon as i received it, i began to read and could not make myself put it down. I found myself rushing home to just so i could get back into it. The author wraps you up in a totally original story that winds you through the lives of people and places traced back from one man's ancestors. I found it to be exceptionally intriguing and even an educational experience. I am not sure that science fiction is the best classification since there are several twists and turns of some obvious non-fiction, romance, spirituality and occult. The story is original and the writing puts the reader right in the story. In finishing I would, not to sound cliche, highly reccomend this book, to any type of reader. I want to thank the author for this enlightening experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Selected excerpts from a book review by Sci-fi online, May 8, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: The One and the Golden Circle (Paperback)

An original, engaging novel which puts a new slant on the well used " aliens are out there" plot."

"What if, after years of research scientists discovered that our DNA was actually an alien invader?"

"The One and the Golden Circle puts forward and interesting theory.
What would happen if scientists discovered that DNA not only originated on another planet, but that it controlled everything we do?"

"Okay, it sounds far fetched, but the events, as they are revealed in this novel, sound extremely plausible. And it would explain why, despite numerous warnings and chances to change the way we live, mankind is intent on destroying the environment that allows him to live."

" I like the fact that a lot of the author was in this book - it made it feel more realistic."

Scarily enough, this book is not as far fetched as I wish it was. A lot of it is grounded in scientific fact, and the leap the reader has to make in order to take in the rest of the events is not large."
