Knocked it down from 4 stars to 3.5 because of one scene: a character rapes another character and it's presented as character growth because he feels guilty about it. He faces no consequences and she forgives him. I'm not opposed to rape as a plot point but I really dislike it when it's at a female character's expense.

The first half of the book was outstanding, really drew me in, but then the story split into 4 distinct lines and, while they were interesting, I felt myself slipping away.
Finding myself with some time to read on my hands, I persevered where I might have otherwise abandoned the read.
Not sorry that I did, the story meshed back nicely, and I consider it a good read, but not without some difficult slogging at times.

WoW! Fui gratamente sorprendida por este libro y por todo el contenido en el, cuando lo compre no tenia ninguna expectativa y ahora creo que ha llenado mas de una.
La lectura es realmente estimulante, plantea aunque con un poco de ficción, la proyección de la materia, la interacción entre el tiempo y el espacio, la evolución física Y ESPIRITUAL del alma y la vibración intelectual para llegar a un plano superior, respecto al punto emocional en el que estabas al morir.
Mas allá de la ficción te deja la duda de que pasara al morir, o si encuentras eso que los orientales llaman NIRVANA a donde iras, si seras recompensado o castigado por tus acciones y de que manera evolucionaras.

Interesting and fun book. Starts off like a modern scienctific/techno-thriller, then suddenly takes a hard right into science fiction. The first half felt more polished, like the author wasn't entirely comfortable with the sci-fi of the second half, but the entirety was still an enjoyable read.

básicamente un libro en el que se mezcla la historia con l ciencia y el drama. Si te interesa la física y quieres un libreto de aventura con base científica este es perfecto

Kabalah and theoretical physics meet in this very interesting speculative novel. I read it all in one night.
