Review: Often bizarre and strangely compelling story
Rating: 5 out of 5

I read Seb Kirby's first novel, Take no more over a year ago and I was fairly certain his second book would be written along a similar vein. I was very wrong. The whole theme is completely different. Seb Kirby has created a unique tale of identity theft and body snatching `earthlings' whose own world has been destroyed.Apart from the first couple of chapters where I was a bit confused before I settled into the story properly, I was soon zipping along and reading the chapters (which are fairly short) at a fast rate. There are plenty of twists and turns to keep the reader on their toes. I won't delve into more of the story as many reviewers have already done that. Suffice to say this is an often bizarre story involving conspiracy theories with plenty of thought-provoking ideas thrown in.Double Bind is an intriguing psychological thriller, with a good dose of science fiction mixed up with good old-fashioned mystery and murder. A highly recommended read and well deserved of the 5 star rating.FM
