I really enjoyed reading Van Fleisher's first two books in this series and know I will enjoy this one as well. I find them to be authentic and spot on with current conflicts on our world. Great review!

Latest Review: Final Act by Van Fleisher

Post by megan25006 »

This author in this series is able to seamlessly integrate the sci-fi aspect of a watch that can predict your death with contemporary issues like gun control while telling a truly engaging story without polarizing any readers with any political views. After reading the first two books in the series I can’t wait to read this one.

The book sounds quite interesting, especially reading about futuristic events. I love how there has been an invention that can predict one's time of death. But I feel like the assassination conspiracy is now a norm for authors to write about. The concept of the dome clusters reminds me of a movie I have watched too. Anyways, thank you for this great review. I should probably get to read the first two books then.

The review was detailed, reading it spark my curiosity and wish it happens in reality. How would someone feel to have a watch that can tell you your date of death????
Thanks for the review. I'm give you 3 out of 4 stars

I'm not really a fan of science fiction and technology, because I prefer romance and thriller but reading this review makes me curious to read this book because if I could have a watch that tells the time and date of death for an individual that will be cool right?

I really like how Kaushiki Parihar gave a very detailed review of the book, if I'm been honest this review will make anyone who's not a fan of science fiction and technology want to read the book, take me for an example.

Thanks for your detailed review of the book I really appreciate it and I'll definitely read this book.

Rapid climate change sounds like what we're experiencing presently in the world. I wonder how the writer would link it to a death prediction watch. Seems fun.

This is a sci-fi book that describes how some kind of different watch can predict the time of your death. It also involves pandemics and an attack to the president

The concept, especially the detailed dome structures, sound very interesting. However, I feel like if you weave together a complex setting, you have to do the same for the characters. I think I might pass on this one, but thanks for your review.

While the premise of the story sounds interesting with all the futuristic gadgets, the negatives you mentioned make it a hard choice on adding this to my reading list. I'll probably read the series because the positives are intriguing and it's fair to make my own opinion.

I have the first two books of this series on my reading list, but in sampling this one, it seems, sadly, more dark and very plausible. I think I’ll skip this last installment. Thank you for your excellent review!

It would be nice to read the first book in this series. This thrilling futuristic sci-fi novel sounds like a dystopian reality. Readers who are interested in climate change and political thrillers will enjoy reading this one. Congratulations on the BOTD.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting science fiction novel set in the future where global warming has caused a series of natural disasters that has led to humanity building domes around cities to protect them from the elements. These domes have caused some to grow angry with the domes that will lead them to plot violence against their leaders. It might be worth a second look. Well done.
