With CERN being in the news lately, with their fancy schmancy atom smasher machine, I have been very interested in learning more.  I mean, if there’s an organization that has basically discovered what gives things mass, and all but proven one of the largest scientific theories in recent history, it’s worth a glance, right?  While on my journey for more knowledge, I discovered this book, which is technically fiction, but still about CERN.When bizarre and monumental catastrophes start happening around the world, some people begin to wonder if CERN’s experiments, and their large Hadron collider, have anything to do with them.  Tom Halligan takes over as the director general of CERN, after the former one passes away.  Tom soon finds out that there are crazy forces trying to manipulate the tests, and potentially destroy the planet, or even the universe.I guess I shouldn’t say for SURE that this book is fiction.  I mean, it could be one of those times where you jokingly admit something that sounds fake, and when everyone finds out, you can say “But I told you a long time ago, it’s not my fault you didn’t believe me!”  It’s one of those stories that is clearly fiction, but is based in reality so well, that it makes you stop and think for a little while… before you realize that’s ridiculous.  For me, it’s stories like that, that I really enjoy, and really gets to me.  Plus this story is very suspenseful and exciting, so I was engaged all the way through.I very much enjoyed this book.  It was an interesting and exciting read, and I recommend it for anyone looking for a good suspenseful thriller, or are interested in the workings of CERN in any form.
