Loir Samson has done it again! In this, the second book of a trilogy, we follow the lives of many of the characters who struggled in that earlier episode as they once again are pulled, serendipitously and often reluctantly, into the latest crisis. Not far into the text we learn of the accidental discovery that the Dome of the Rock, the Moslem Mosque built on the site of the long destroyed ancient Jewish Temple Mount, is the likely target of some sort of attack. Whoever the attackers are, we soon learn, they have been able to obtain an unknown quantity of nuclear material. Who are these terrorists? Why would they want to destroy the Dome and also make the Mount so radioactive as to make it uninhabitable? And what exactly is the plan?
A technologically oriented Christian anthropological team, a cabal of tech savvy teenage computer hackers, a free lance journalist, and, of course, the Mousad conspire, sometimes consciously and sometimes unwittingly, to understand and interfere with the plan. The action builds to a crescendo in a fast and furious all out effort to stop the attack. In the end, everything from a spy satellite, the Israeli Airforce, and a couple of creepy robots engage in a wildly chaotic effort to derail the triply redundant plot that is guaranteed mathematically to be successful.
The text is riveting, the images cinematic. The Dome!

THE DOME by Lior Samson continues the story of ordinary people with extraordinary talents who inhabit the world of Israel's international secret service.
Three "saviors" of the world the Sage, the Wizard, and the Wonk obtain a shipment of necular fuel and plan to wipe-out The Dome, which three major religions hold sacred. By doing so, in their convoluted thinking, they are saving the world from its history and beginning a new slate.
Karl Lustig is an American living in Israel who is married to a woman with a young son. The son is an enterprising young man who has many of the traits of his father who was Karl's best friend.
Bini and his friends love to hack into web sites and discover some strange items that are intriguing such as the mapping of old passage ways under The Dome.
Internet chatter alerts the authorities, but few strong leads emerge until the director pays a visit to his old friend, Karl. The results of the boy's friends sends him on a mission against time to prevent an international distaster. This quest demands the corrperation of all sects who make the middle east their battle ground.
A fast read that will have you flipping the pages of this fine espionage thriller with a deft touch of romance.

Lior Samson is back with another taut and exciting thriller. The Dome continues with characters first introduced in Samson's earlier novel, Bashert. I enjoyed it, but I liked this one even better. You don't need to have read Bashert to enjoy The Dome, but it helps the reader appreciate how the passage of time has changed the characters and how they have developed.

This is an exciting read built around the politics of the Middle East and there's plenty of action and spine-tingling adventure with Israeli spies, terrorists and even university professors. Samson is the pen name of Larry Constantine, a university professor himself. He writes of academe with experience and sometimes takes a dig at the pretences of his own profession. I like his writing a lot. It is crisp, sardonic, sometimes amusing and highly entertaining. He's a real story teller.

I highly recommend this book. Unforunately it is currently only available in paperback. I understand a Kindle version is pending. But if you don't want to wait, the higher priced paperback is well worth the read. There is also a preview of his latest novel, Web Games. Sounds like a real winner that I plan to read next.

This my first review of a book. The Dome is a book I would recommend to anybody. Then plot was suspenseful & unpredictable, the characters were well formed and interesting & the flow of the book was pretty good. In a way I would like to say at first I thought the plot a little on the unbelievable side, but the more I read & the more I think about the world today I can see it as very plausible. My one negative critique would be the usage of so many Jewish phrases w/o some interpretation. The Kindle dictionary doesn't provide definitions so I would have liked for there to have been a small dictionary of terms that could have been accessed, or possibly an interpretation in parenthesis after the word. That said I was able to guess at the meaning of most by the context in which they were used. I'm looking forward to more by the author in the future.
