Book Review by Susan McMichael
4.5 out of 5 stars
A thrilling ride from the first page…
Armageddon and the 4th Timeline by Don Mardak is a thrilling ride from the first page. This science fiction novel combines time travel, spiritual themes, a fascinating mix of characters and modern intrigue to create an unputtable down novel.
We meet the CIA Director, Scott Cunningham, a former Navy SEAL, and his Assistant Lori Colbert, addressing a meeting after a terrible terrorists attacks. We also meet husband and wife Kathy and Eric who are in Lhasa, Tibet, on a spiritual quest. Through Eric's time travel, both worlds intersect. Mardak's premise throughout the novel is that there "is a spiritual universe, and mankind has the ability to rise into a higher level of consciousness where all conflicts can be resolved peacefully without resorting to wars, or threatening a nuclear holocaust.”

Currently reading this outstanding and gripping book.
Filled with danger, suspense and surprise but not depending on blood, bullets, and gore like many novels. This is a quality thriller that delivers entertainment without predictability.
Quirky at times, amusing in places and downright dark in other places.
A psychological thriller with a legal/conspiratorial subplot - highly recommended to those who enjoy complex characters and contemporary writing.

A young boy in New York City, Theo Decker, miraculously survives an accident that takes the life of his mother. Alone and determined to avoid being taken in by the city as an orphan, Theo scrambles between nights in friends’ apartments and on the city streets. He becomes entranced by the one thing that reminds him of his mother, a small, mysteriously captivating painting.




I've just started Divergent by Veronica Roth and I am hooked! Heard so much about these books, especially as they're making the trilogy into films! Plus the soundtrack includes a song from my favourite band Snow Patrol ;D

and white oleander by Janet fitch is a book I think every girl would like to a degree.
they're both one of my top top top favorites :>

Thanks for the recommendation! I added The House of Silk: A Sherlock Holmes Novel also. :)

I have just began The Enchanted. I've heard great things and got sent this copy by the publisher a couple months back, so I should probably give it a whirl!
