Initially I wasn't sure how I would feel about this as it has some potentially disturbing elements that are just a little too close to the 9/11 events to be comfortable and that is still a raw spot for many, but I found the author's treatment of the sensitive subject very respectful.This was extremely well written, with an excellent combination of adventure, politics, and suspense.  The constantly changing points of view kept my attention riveted throughout the book despite the decided distaste I found for several of the characters as human beings.  The seemingly disparate storylines are seamlessly woven into a single cohesive adventure which shows the author's obvious talent.I'm quite surprised that this is a debut novel as it feels quite polished.  I am looking forward to reading the second volume as well as future releases from this talented new author.
