‘Rerun’ written by Chris Manteria examines an interesting premise - if suddenly you would be able to see into the past or future, what could be done with such abilities?The main character Charles Williams is a young man in New York City who experiences visions of events from the past and those which will happen in the future. Charlie will use his visions to save a woman named Jennifer from death in several occasions. And while the story gradually merges Charlie’s visions, Jennifer past and some other characters the novel concludes with an unexpected twist.Though ‘Rerun’ on moments may seem slow, as the story unfolds the pace will accelerate and novel in its last third becomes extremely interesting.The premise around which the action is happening really opens up many questions, will owning of similar capability would be a great gift or a curse, is that something you could truly desire and what burden would such visions impose on someone’s life?Chris Manteria with his book gave his view about the answers of these questions, therefore his novel, besides few minor drawbacks which usually follow the self-published authors, is intriguing and certainly recommended for reading.
