Imaginative, with action and suspense, it should be a favorite among action book lovers and is clearly a story that most science fiction readers would love. I am both a reader of science fiction and reader/author of action books. So why do I not love The Enigma Cube? The reason is excessive verbosity. The book is much longer than it needs to be to tell the story. The story struggles among a dung heap of excessive explanation, buried in piles of awkward, unrealistic dialog. The efforts to make the characters “cool” under fire, backfires terribly and they merely come off as being abnormal. In addition, under the circumstances of the scenarios, the moral dilemmas caused by the killing seemed exaggerated and unbelievable. Finally, there’s the issue of the “super soldier”. I admit a personal bias against super-heroes masquerading as normal humans. While I liked the idea of the story, I found it tedious, excessively long, and skipped large blocks of endless superfluous dialog, agonizing, and explanation. Readers, who are focused on the story, will as well. This is a five-star story told in a three-star way, so call it an average of four-stars. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieAlien Artifact (1)
An alien object with breathtaking capabilities. And a life-and-death struggle for the future of humanity. Dr. Kelly Connolly is part of a top-secret team studying the most important find in human history, the Enigma Cube, an alien artifact of incomprehensible power. A cube whose technology can catapult civilization to dizzying heights, or destroy it entirely. After years of failed attempts to unlock the cube's secrets, all hell suddenly breaks loose. Kelly and a black-ops commando, Justin Boyd, are soon fighting against all odds to stay alive and to keep the cube out of enemy hands. As the situation quickly goes from bad to worse, Kelly discovers that the cube is far more dangerous than even she had imagined. And that her actions could lead to nightmarish changes to the nature of reality itself. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Imagine an alien artifact that will change the face of history. More than three times. Commander Justin Boyd and Dr. Kelly Connelly are in the race against time to save humanity.
The Enigma Cube has everything you could possibly want in a smart, technothriller. High grade Military defensive ware run by ethical men who want to put it to use for peace.
Artificial Intelligence adapted to keep a soldier alive that actually has an agenda of it's own. Mix in the possibility of changing the horrors of the past as well as preventing any future travesties, and you've got a novel you won't put down no matter how late it gets. ( )
