Review: Thought Provoking

Rich with back story and full of fantastic theories, this is not a book to take lightly or read quickly—it needs to be sipped rather than gulped. And just like a good wine “Alexander” is subtly nuanced and carefully crafted. The novel continues the story of Alexander Baldwin, now a renowned scholar and physicist whose youthful wanderings into worlds beyond our own have reemerged in his adult life to influence his scientific research and alter his thoughts on life and reality.I haven’t read the first book in this series and stumbled on this one quite accidentally, but I was sucked in immediately. The great thing about this book is that it stands alone perfectly, and if you missed the first one you can still follow the story. Thought provoking and strange, Alexander is the perfect book for physics fans, sci-fi and fantasy enthusiasts, or anyone who wants a fresh perspective on the meaning of life.
