When I first started reading this genre, I thought there were only two authors, King and Koontz. Now, of course, I know of many more and have enjoyed most of them. This novel, however, brings me back to the past. Gripping, unable to be put down - I read this in one day. Not always realistic, but always enjoyed...this one's a keeper.

Definite Keeper. This was a darn good book. It keeps you wondering what you would do if, in some strange twist of fate you were thrown into such an inexplicable situation. You find yourself checking your rear view mirror more often, and being much more aware of those around you. Such paranoia. It will shake, rattle and roll you; I couldn't put it down. I pulled an all nighter with this one. It makes you lose hope in humanity, and by the end you regain hope, though you are a bit shaky. Very moving.

This novel focuses on the aftermath of a car-crash disaster, a crash that has apparently killed one of America's favorite feminists and has ravaged the soul of San Diego Psychologist Professor Fred Porter. A call to his friend, a Judge, wrenches his life around when he discovers what he's unearthed. Incredible events follow.

The secret behind the mayhem, which is delivered at breakneck speed, concerns a scientific breakthrough into mystical neuroscience regarding Munyemesha presents with sour-sweet analysis. But if his science his suspicious, his soapboxing is another story---a merciless rant against moral turpitude---and his prose is ripe to the point of decay. Driven by morality, this will sell good...and that will be the end!

A rich beginning, engrossing in the middle, and fuzzy at the end. Good effort.

It is an interesting book. I was put off a little by the various typoes and grammatical errors; however, I felt he did a very good job overall and made some very good points that people should think over. The author talks about something that hasn't been addressed enough, and when it has been focused on, tends to trigger excessive emotion that only makes things worse. It'll be interesting to see what he comes out with next time.

This is a great literary piece, I thought---though the resolution is a little loose. Nice work on descriptions. The flow of language floats the characters off the paper. Mmmh!

SILENT WHISPERS by Evans Munyemesha ISBN 0-595-09670-0 www.iUniverse.com

Despite the lonely, grief stricken year that has passed since the fiery accident that claimed his wife, Gina, Fred Porter is convinced by the nightmares and the whispering, desperate cries in his mind, she is still, somehow, alive.

Corporate power combined with cold evil to stop Gina Porter's campaign for the feminist movement. Now, they will join again, to stop her husband from discovering and unmasking the nefarious and malicious misuse of science and power at Mediks.

But, the powers Mediks have released are far beyond their control. Still, can Porter win his desperate race against time?

Though the characters remain seperate, intent on their own path and schemes, Evans Munyemesha has a poetic mastery of language, that slashes across the pages of SILENT WHISPERS to pull at the readers heart and soul,making you hear, and see, and feel, and smell whatever he is describing. He writes a powerful plea for the feminist movement and womanhood, that will have you turning pages to find the answer to SILENT WHISPERS...

When I heard that the author was from Zambia I doubted his ability to weave an intricate tale. After reading this book I am impressed with his writing ability, his analysis of the corporate world, and oppression of women. I recommend this book to all. I plan on it being a regular purchase for family and friends, and look forward to another work, by Mr. Munyemesha.
