This book blew my mind. It's fast paced, it's smart and it raises many interesting questions.One of the main characters is Peter Anderson, an FBI agent, who is assisting base commander Colonel Walsh in interrogating Max Pollack, a Navy SEAL who acquired supernatural abilities after a mission to an Arctic island.One question Peter and his team are trying to figure out is: Why doesn't Pollack use his mind control powers to escape from the military base?At some point they begin to suspect that Pollack could have planted thoughts in the heads of some top government officials.The book has plenty of scientific and historical information that helps understand how or why Max Pollack, the mindbender, does what he does, and what he was sent to accomplish.I like books that suggest new original ideas, and "The Mindbender" is one of those books. I especially liked the idea of ancient beings overseeing the human race for tens of thousands of years.This book has everything: suspense, humor, intriguing philosophical points, action, even conspiracy theories. It kept me at the edge of my seat.I easily give it five stars!
