"Enigma of the Second Coming" is the kind of novel that manages to be a little bit of everything from romantic to soul searching to mystical and sweepingly dramatic. Stan I.S. Law's talent for writing shines through as he weaves a story about the complications of life, the wonders of the universe and the connections we build with the ones we love.This is a well-written novel that has a lot of heart, taking me through a gamut of emotions from sad to hopeful to frantic and everything in between. The author uses vivid imagery to paint this uniquely complex world were love and family mix together with the mysteries of the universe. The story has a wonderful pace that speeds up when the action gets good, but slows down when the mood hits a more serious tone... drawing you into Heidi's world and the complexities she encounters in her life. Set with a deeply lyrical and sweeping tone, the novel takes the reader on a boundless journey that brings up thought provoking ideas about the universe, the boundless human spirit and the strange connections that guide our lives.Overall, this is a wonderfully engaging and enjoyable read that doesn't disappoint. It's thoughtful, insightful, wildly entertaining and packed full of strong dialogue, authentic characters and a plot that keeps you sucked in until the very end.
