"Gift of Gamman" is the kind of uniquely original novel that takes you on a wildly entertaining ride while managing to put a focus on thought-provoking ideas and concepts about humanity, the future and life itself. Stan I.S. Law melds together a collection of book genres from science fiction to action and metaphysical philosophy, to weave a story about alien races, intergalactic astronauts, religious/spiritual concepts and evolution. The writing is lush, vibrant, thought-provoking, fast-paced, emotionally powerfully and wonderfully entertaining. Mr. Law does a fantastic job of making you eager to keep on reading, drawing you into the world of these characters and making you care about them and their journey, about their revelations in a truly exceptional way.The novel has an originality to it that I haven't ever come across before, blending together fiction with non-fiction elements to weave a fantastically imaginative tale that never ceases to keep the reader sucked into the plot. I don't want to spoil the story because it really is worthy of exploring it for the first time as you read, so I will just say that the author manages to make you think while engaging your creative mind with strong dialogue, authentic characters and a plot that has a solid foundation of entertainment.This was a very enjoyable read and managed to get me to sit down and read it all in one sitting because it was so good (which if you knew me is quite an achievement). The author has a clear talent for storytelling that can't be denied and I am eager to read more from Stan I.S. Law.
