Book Description

Dr. Jin Tsay’s revelation entices the military with a potential to uncover and disarm any covert threats. The government that funded the engineer’s classified project orders Tsay’s death, so they can solely and secretly possess his alluring technological consummation: VEIL

Veil proves to be the purest, deepest form of espionage and anti-terrorism by endowing humankind with the ability to experience life through another person. Dr. Tsay's technology offers submersion into another’s mind; Veil provides a direct perception of their immediate thoughts, emotions, memories, and the rush of their most intimate senses. If it ever escapes the military’s relentlessly selfish grip, Veil swears to permanently alter the psychosocial, sexual, political, economic, and religious landscapes of our lives. Veil promises to usher in our ultimately unifying evolution: the New Veil World.

Retribution for Dr. Jin Tsay’s assassination comes in the form of his widow, who races to deliver Veil unto the world and share it freely, before those who ordered her husband’s murder can exploit it. Wielding the inescapable force of Veil, Suren Tsay seeks to inflict justice upon all those responsible for her husband’s demise, culminating in an unforgiving, brutal, obsessive hunt for the elusive killer of the father of the New Veil World: the Great Jin Tsay.

Taking Veil beyond limits Jin himself could’ve imagined, the revered Widow Tsay vows to get her revenge at any cost. Suren Tsay soon realizes she too must inhabit the world created by her husband’s invention and her own bloodlust.

Suren must learn to live in the New Veil World.
She must also fight to liberate it.

5.0 out of 5 stars veil September 11, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've gotta be honest, the first 3 or 4 chapters I really struggled with reading but continued because I never like to leave a book unfinished. Basically it was difficult for me because I'm a siple minded person and teh author is so complex (in a good way) it was hard for me to keep up. However, once getting past my 'hump' I could NOT put it down. I was so amazed with the author's creativity that I was obsessed with what he thought of next. I was highly entertained with Suri and Hunter's relationship. I'm in awe of his talent and imagination that is brought to this story (not to mention the author looks pretty hot :)). I'm looking forward to what he thinks up for the next book!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars An achievement September 27, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
It became a really intriguing story for me as I read along further. Glad I gave it a chance because right at first it wasn't my cup of tea. I'll applaud the author for taking what is a rather complex subject and making it understandable. A major portion of the story line involves creating the technology in order to read minds.

Really, Veil has a dense plot that I felt was well written. As I went along the harder it was to put down. I really like the retribution element to the whole story line, the woman scorned kind of thing.

I did receive a free copy of the book for this review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant! October 5, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Unlike some of the other reviewers, I was unable to put this down. Actually, did not think I would enjoy it but boy was I wrong. I was fascinated by the concept of Veiling and highly recommend this book. Cannot wait to read the rest of the series.

More About the Author

Apparently highly offensive but relatively easy on the eyes. He means everything he says, unless someone takes offense-in which case it was just a joke and perhaps they shouldn't be so uptight.

He has a son, a lover, a mother, a father, sisters, brothers, good friends, a dog, and a foul mouth; therefore, he has all he needs. This is his first book, so he's not entirely sure what he's doing, but he gotsa liking for the story and the characters. His only hope is others do as well. If they don't, screw 'em. He never liked them anyway.

_____________________________

Book one of the New Veil World trilogy is complete: VEIL. Please excuse me while I finish the other two. It will only take about eight years...six chimpanzees...ohhhh and did I mention there-might-be-a-dead-puppy-involved?
