"Crazy has no memory and feels no fear. Dangerous and unpredictable, he's locked away in SafeHaven, a psychiatric hospital, where he spends the long days watching Wheel of Fortune and wondering what the outside world smells like. When a mysterious visitor arives and offers him a way out Crazy doesn't hesitate to accept. But outside the hospital Crazy is faced with a world on the brink of nuclear annihilation, and find himself relocated to Neuro Inc., a secretive corporation with strange government ties. When he discovers evidence of human experimentation he escapes with a syringe, the contents of which are unknown to him but precious to Neuro. Cornered and with a complete disregard for the results, Crazy makes himself indispensable by injecting the substance into his leg. As the substance enters his bloodstream, though, his eyes are opened to a world beyond human experience, where fear is a tool and the shadows hide the source of mankind's nightmares. Struggling to understand his new abilities, Crazy allies himself with the company he fled and begins peeling back the layers of his past, the brewing war between worlds, how he can stop it and what he did to start it. With Crazy, Robinson, whose trademarked pacing and inventive plots have been highly praised by bestselling authors like Jonathan Maberry, Scott Sigler and James Rollins, treats readers to a wildly imaginative, frenetically paced thriller exploring the origins of fear"--… (plus d'informations)

It starts out well enough. Sets a scenario that takes a bit from Heinlein’s starship troopers mixed with Frank Herbert’s Hellstrom’s Hive and introduces a shadow world that is populated with a menagerie of Doom (video game) like creatures. So far so good, but then there is the protagonist, a superhero goes it alone and killing ‘em all kind of character whose powers are not only unbelievable but in his creation was riddled with inconsistencies.
The idea, or rather the combination of ideas makes for an intriguing package and deserves 3-4 stars, sadly the main character begets a lone star- and I’m not talking about Texas. ( )

Another book I'm reading to flesh out more backstory before I dive back into [b:Project Legion|32737583|Project Legion (Nemesis Saga #5)|Jeremy Robinson|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1477346775l/32737583._SY75_.jpg|53328170]. This was actually quite a bit better than I thought it was going to be based on the synopsis. Some good twists and turns; over all a lot of fun. ( )

This book is such Mr. Robinson's style...greatness! Reading this book was not just a story but a weird (in a good way) journey into another reality that will blow your mind. It just might have you thinking you are crazy with a capital "C".

You would not be able to tell from my comments above that I had reservations about reading this book. This is because when I first picked up this book to start I was not sure about the concept. I am a big fan of Mr. Robinson so I know that he can write but still I thought the concept was too out there for me. Yet as I mentioned above this was more than just a story but one that will blow your mind. It sure had me hooked. ( )
