[Following is a volunteer review of "Superhighway" by Alex Fayman.]

Right from chapter one, Superhighway grabs you by the head and plunges you deep into a suspense packed thriller. The author narrated the story very well, and managed to arrange it in such a manner that all the parts fit together perfectly. I loved how the characters were developed, the choice of words, and the writing style, which made the story so captivating. This fiction thriller is also part of a sequel that takes place within the internet and across the globe. In my opinion, the author did a brilliant job in making the story not only believable, but can form a basis for a hypothesis worthy of research.

Superhighway by Alex Fayman is a book about a young man, Alex Fine, who discovered that he has exceptional abilities which he tries to put them to good use. Mr. Fine, a mutant orphan, and offspring of a government conspiracy, finds himself able to travel from place to place through the internet, hack into the CIA archive, and make 20$ billion. With such brilliant narration and approach, Mr. Fayman did justice to what could potentially be a blockbuster if adopted into a movie.

Apart from making the characters so relatable and capable, Mr. Fayman also made sure that the situations and scenarios were described to perfection. There are sex scenes that will blow your mind off and murders so gruesome you would vomit. Mr. Fayman, managed to draw attention to the finer details of the story that would lure the reader’s emotions and hold them captive all the way to the end. In his quest to sustain and understand himself, find love, and avenge his parents, Alex Fine ended up getting rich, helping the needy, and creating powerful enemies.

This book has nothing that I did not like, and I would recommend it to all those that love fiction thrillers packed with fast-paced action. As I have mentioned before, there are scenes that may not be suitable for younger readers, and also for those sensitive to violence can skip this book as well. The ability of Mr. Fayman to paint an emotional picture of a young man that, despite a difficult childhood, was able to converse very well with the environment of well-to-do peers, is absolutely amazing.

This book reads so smoothly that you will hardly notice any grammatical or editing errors. It is this, with the art of storytelling that made me rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. So, ladies and gentlemen, if you are the kind of person who won’t shy away from a little ride on an emotional roller coaster, adrenaline packed action, delicate lovemaking, and some blood, then, welcome to the Superhighway by Alex Fayman.

I love the beginning of your review.... strike that, I love the whole review! Blockbuster movie? Sounds like the book has what it takes to make one. Unfortunately, the graphic murders and sex scenes would make me hesitate to pick up the book. Thanks for the amazing review!

I love fiction thrillers with fast-paced action.

Loved your review.

"With power comes responsibility." That's how the cliche goes; it's quite applicable to this piece. Thank you for your interesting review.

Being able to provoke so many emotions in the reader and really portray the feelings of a scene, whether it's gruesome or otherwise is, perhaps, the higher praise an author can receive. I had read other reviews of the book, much more focused on the sci-fi aspect and I liked how you highlighted the characters and other assets of the novel. Thank you!

How interesting that he was a mutant born as a result of a conspiracy. Thanks for the warning about the gruesome scenes - I'm not always keen on those.

This sounds like a fast-paced book, and it's for this reason I know it's not for me. I'm glad you liked the book so much, it sounds well crafted and detailed! Thank you for this crisp and enthusiastic review!

I agree with you that this book could be made into a movie with all the action and great storytelling. I enjoyed the book, as I felt the danger Alex found himself in quite often. Though I did not always like Alex's decisions and actions, he was quite brave to travel and explore the world so very different than the orphanage he was brought up in.

I read this book and wrote a review on it before. It's an awesome book. Great review.
