About this listen

When Nick Hall wakes up in a dumpster - bloodied, without a memory, and hearing voices in his head - he knows things are bad. But they're about to get far worse. Because he's being hunted by a team of relentless assassins. Soon Hall discovers that advanced electronics have been implanted in his brain, and he now has two astonishing abilities. He can surf the web using thoughts alone. And he can read minds. But who inserted the implants? And why? And why is someone so desperate to kill him?

As Hall races to find answers, he comes to learn that far more is at stake than just his life. Because his actions can either catapult civilization to new heights - or bring about its total collapse.

Extrapolated from actual research on thought-controlled web surfing, Mind's Eye is a smart, roller-coaster ride of a thriller. One that raises a number of intriguing, and sometimes chilling, possibilities about a future that is just around the corner.

The action is cranked up to 11 in this novel, so it's definitely a page turner. It's not as heavy on the science as, say, a Michael Crichton novel, but still enjoyable. I'm looking forward to reading Richards' other books.

I was quite enjoying this one, very easy listening and good to have on while vacuuming, mowing the lawn etc. It was well written, and an interesting premise, and would easily have been 5 stars but the reveal was lazy, shows a lack of creativity and is an unnecessary cheap shot at a certain cohort. I’m conscious of avoiding spoilers, but it was such a huge disappointment that, for me at least, it detracted so heavily from the work as a whole.

****SLIGHTLY SPOILERISH COMMENT BELOW:****





I know there has to be a bad guy, but this book was written well into the 20teens; Other motives could have been found without continuing a played out and offensive stereotype.

An enjoyable listen with a very disappointing reveal.
