Incredibly good: My review of "Singularity" by Steven James

about the book....

Jevin Banks is searching for a killer--and answers to terrifying questions he never even thought to ask.

When his friend is murdered, illusionist Jevin Banks is determined to find out what really happened. Drawn deep into a web of conspiracy and top-secret research on human consciousness, Jevin won't stop digging until the truth is revealed. Soon he uncovers a dark secret that could change the very fabric--and future--of human life on the planet.

Based on frightening scientific realities and bristling with mystery, suspense, and intrigue, Singularity is the riveting sequel to Placebo.

my review....

"Singularity" proves, yet again, why Steven James is one of the top suspense authors in the Christian market - or any market for that matter! From the taut beginning that had me shuddering as I considered the incident that happens with the snakes, to the gripping conclusion that had me devouring the final pages, I was so caught up in the story that I simply couldn't walk away. The writing is top-notch, with action-packed scenes and wonderfully witty dialogue that had me laughing in several places. The magic scenes were fabulous, and I can promise that if Jevin Banks were real I'd be on my way to Las Vegas right now to watch one of his shows! The characters are fascinating and I loved watching them interact; although I enjoyed the relationship between Jevin and his assistant-turned-girlfriend Charlene, it is the scenes involving Fiona and her amazingly smart children that I most often loved. They are simply hilarious! And when it comes to villains, James has succeeded at creating some extra creepy ones, with the male and female villains in this story that make it truly frightening to consider such persons existing in real life.

If you enjoyed the first book in the series, "Placebo", then you are going to absolutely love "Singularity". I'm not sure if there are more books planned featuring Jevin Banks and friends, but I for one certainly hope so! This book is a fabulously entertaining read. 5 out of 5 stars.
