It is intended for mature teens and adults, and parents should use caution in determining if it is appropriate for a child in their care. Connor turned his head around. He grinned when he saw I turned around. He parked the car and got out. The man got out of the car, looking more vial and menacing than ever. The man fought back, hitting Connor in the gut.

A priest who, already suffering at the tendrils of his own doubts, gets drawn into a world of mystery and a covert darkness that permeates our society after discovering a hidden letter in the depths of an old church. A successful trader who works for a city bank seems to have it all, but if you were to scratch beneath the surface, a secret burden tearing at him, becoming too much for him to bear would emerge.

Finding himself at the point of despair he asks for answers. Unusual doors begin to open revealing truths that make him wonder if his burden has just increased. Every door opened slams tightly shut as he walks to the next. Once making the decision to open the first, he rapidly realises that there is no going back.

Maybe the decision had already been made for him. Like many others, one man is struggling to see the purpose of life in the rat race. Trying to find a better way is consuming his daily thoughts, but why does the system seem so geared up to stop it? Could the appearance of a mysterious stranger link the lives of these seemingly unrelated individuals? The world is changing faster now than ever before.

A dark storm is coming. Facing decimation, humanity endures the aftermath of nuclear war. An estimated twenty million human beings remain, scattered throughout the planet. Amidst this war continues, the theater of operations often found upon the North American continent as pockets of invaders assault the remaining American population. A child emerges, a prophesied savior to lead humanity to return to the path of innocence reigniting a long-lost dream.

Through painful endurance, America embraces forgotten freedoms. The fact that somehow the radar systems of The Chinese Government had been manipulated was self-evident, for the missile strikes launched by America at what became the onset of the war had indeed been retaliatory, and despite the claims that the assault had been preemptive.

This fact could be supported by, among others The British, Canadian and Australian Governments whose technological evidence also remained under investigation. And although these same countries testified in a world forum held at The Hague, their assertions had been countered by The Chinese, Iranian and North Korean Governments who laid claim to the contrary.

Motive was questioned, and then answered by The Chinese who maintained that The United States, once a global financial superpower had lost its economic foothold to China, and had become renegade in a desperate attempt to regain what their complacent citizens had forfeited via trade imbalance. The Chinese, defending their own nation stated that their citizens had worked harder, were superior in their efforts and earned every bit of the global financial domination they had acquired, further stating that Americans had become self righteous and arrogant and lacked motivation toward their work ethics.

In short, and despite extensive rhetoric the global forum had become a Mexican standoff. In the meantime, the bloody war raged on. What an inspiring city, Paris, but boy is it expensive!

    Lists with This Book. This book is not yet featured on Listopia. Oct 12, Bret James Stewart rated it it was amazing. I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Kees Bijker has actually managed to make me like a science-fiction novel. Book 1 of The Unification Trilogy Dissolution of Thought is foremost and continually a thoughtful book. The title itself is mysterious and engaging. The front and back covers have beautiful space imagery. The interior text is well done with few errors, contains quotes by various historic person Notice: The interior text is well done with few errors, contains quotes by various historic personages that add to the flavour of the chapter and the book as a whole.

    Bijker has laid out the entire book in a series of proems followed by chapters, which is both aesthetically pleasing and carries the story along via viewpoints and descriptions that are sometimes complementary and other times opposing. The distinction between art and science is mild to non-existent in this book, and I think this is how it should be.

    The protagonist and other important characters are developed enough to seem both real and individual; this is often hard to do, with characters being flat and remote. The descriptions of the landscape and space are contemplative, and the first portion of the book, especially, is poetic enough to be a creation epic. Many books that are part of a series are not written well enough to stand on their own, but this one is. There is a clear plot arc that ends thoughtfully of course!

    Sure, odds and ends, but only two worth mentioning. First, I found the aqua on purple text on the back cover difficult to read. Second, despite providing notes for our fellow earthlings, there are no aids for pronouncing the alien names, although these are not nearly as hard as the multi-consonantal names some sci-fi authors scatter through their books.

    I would rank this book 4. In the end matter, he mentions the second part of the trilogy: The Extirpation of Lies the man can come up with a title, can he not? Jul 31, Allan Krummenacker rated it it was amazing. I have often enjoyed science fiction in the forms of Isaac Asimov's robots, Ray Bradbury's martians and space exploration. But I've never considered myself hard-core when it comes to reading. I'm not one for reading about space battles and whatnot. I'm more into the cerebral and thought-provoking type of science fiction, and that's what I got with this book. The author starts us out with a history of a I have often enjoyed science fiction in the forms of Isaac Asimov's robots, Ray Bradbury's martians and space exploration.

    The author starts us out with a history of an alien race who gives birth to two artificial intelligences, one very helpful the Pirend'r Mla , the other more warlike Voznum Kukhy who fought for them. And as with other science fiction, the warlike type wind up destroying their creators, and even hunt their more kind kin. They also take up attacking and enslaving other worlds and races. However, the Pirend'r Mla prove formidable and the two sides are at a standstill, with the Pirend'r Mla wanting to change their brethren's ways rather than destroy them.

    But they cannot do it alone. Thus they reach out to a little blue planet that will soon come under attack from the Voznum Kukhy, and try to help them prepare to fight back.
