Mind's Eye

So this guy wakes up in a dumpster, and discovers he has no idea who he is, where he's from, or how he got there.

He quickly figures out that some very dangerous people are out to kill him, but he doesn't know why. He learns this based on a very strange ability he also realises he has: he can read people's minds.

While on the run, he meets a woman, and a romantic entanglement ensues.

If you think you've heard this story before, you may be right... but you've never heard it like this before!

The tale is woven so beautifully, so effortlessly, that everything feels completely natural, and nothing is forced. I was carried away by this story, and fully believed every scenario presented to me. Even the ending, while maybe a little far-fetched, was perfect. It took me totally by surprise (I did NOT see it coming), but everything was explained so thoroughly, I was left absolutely satisfied.

The writing and editing are flawless too, and there's not a single typo, glitch, or plot issue that I can remember.

This truly is a marvelous book, and my hat's off to the writer.

There's one tiny detail, that caused me to dock a star off my review. The Kindle edition which I read doesn't have a linked table of contents. That's important to me, because it means that my Kindle wasn't able to tell me how much longer I had to go in a chapter. It's not an issue in a print book, where you can easily flip forward a couple of pages and figure it out, but it's almost impossible in an ebook.

But no matter, that's easily fixed. Again, great book. Technothriller fans, stop what you're doing, and go read it. Now.

Wow, talk about the ugliest book cover I have ever seen! Yes, I'm referring to the Kindle edition. With the lovely green font.
Sorry, I had to get that out of the way. Now, over to the content of the book. Our protagonist is Nick Hall. He wakes up in a dumpster with the ability to read minds. And surf the internet. Awesome, right? .. right? Maybe not? Would you like to know what your colleagues and friends really think about you? 
Anyway. There's a lot of action, and some interesting characters and fun plot twists. Even though some of the plot twists were pretty predictable, it was a techno thriller that kept me entertained. I'm sure I'll pick up Douglas' future books, too. :)
