A review by henryarmitage
The Hollow Man by Dan Simmons
4.0
I've read a bunch of Dan Simmons... The Hyperion/Endymion series, Carrion Comfort, Summer of Night. You don't hear much about this book, but it totally knocked my socks off.
There's a cool math and science premise having to do with quantum physics that the author has obviously researched pretty well.
I wouldn't call this a romance exactly but there's a decent romantic sub-plot around the protagonist and his wife. As a married guy I appreciate fictional married-couple romance. The typical fictional romance ending with the characters making that commitment 'and they lived happily ever after' offers nothing for me to really relate to.
There's a reasonable amount of action.
The ending is a little disturbing. I wouldn't hand this book to someone I knew to be unstable.
