Book Description

February 8, 2005
Earth is forever changed one dark summer night when tiny alien machines known as nanites drift down from outer space. They transform a normal human into a god-like being known as the Singularity, who drives the remnants of humanity underground and to the brink of extinction. Now Earth's only hope lies in the hands of a rag-tag group of "Specials" - humans mysteriously immune to the nanites' destructive power. The odds are stacked against them, but will a defector from the other side grant them the edge they need to prevail?

3.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Art, Great Concept, Muddled Characters, November 16, 2005
This review is from: Singularity 7 (Paperback)
Templesmith is a master artist and conceptualist, but Singularity 7 shows that he still needs some work on storytelling and characterization. Some of the characters are hard to tell apart, and no character ever comes out as a lead. I have no problem with emsemble pieces, but there were characters that seemed like they were only in the story to serve as a lead, then never got to be one. The boy with the dragon tattoo on his face, for example (those who've read this will understand).

Negatives aside, Templesmith's art has always been exceptional, and he does not break from that here. Plus, the concept of the story is extremely engaging, even when the characters are not. It's too bad that this is a self-contained story, because the story could have gone on as a series for quite some time. I have high hopes for his current series, Shadowplay, and hope to see that published as a collection soon.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ben Templesmith... extraordinary!, April 25, 2008
This review is from: Singularity 7 (Paperback)
I will be simple... Great story (it is Templesmith debut as a storyteller), the art is his own kind, very special, I love all the details of his art and this terror scy-fi graphic novel. I rate this book with four stars (instead five) because the quality of the binding is disgusting...

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow, April 5, 2005
By 
This review is from: Singularity 7 (Paperback)
An awesome story-line, fantastic artwork and a superb mix of horror and science fiction make this one to remember. Highly recommended to anyone who likes the band Fear Factory, as the artist of Singularity 7, Ben Templesmith, was actually commissioned by the band to do their artwork.

All in all, worth the money and worth a read. Over and over again
