A review by felinity
Act of God by Charles Templeton
3.0
3.5 stars
This was a very random pickup from the free bin outside a bookstore, but one that was surprisingly good.
The plot may sound like Dan Brown, but the writing is nothing like. This is no fast-paced speed-written thriller designed to keep you reading (and not thinking) till the very end; this is a novel with thoughtful protagonists, who choose each step of the way very deliberately. It may not result in their desired aim, but there are no fools rushing in. The characters were well-defined, and very real in sense.
A good old-fashioned read.
