Search - The Traveler (Fourth Realm, Bk 1)

One of the best books I've read in a while...a great new near future world...with computer surveillance and Big Brother overtones. There are still a few Travelers who can move beyond our realm and change the way others view the world and those who protect them. About halfway through the book I found myself hoping it would be a series and was pleased at the end to find it will be!

Cutting edge fantasy that speaks to the anxieties of an increasing globalized and mediated world.

A very fast read! It was interesting and action packed. The writing is choppy, and the "facts you need to know" could have been introduced in a way that helped character development, rather than seeming like a rattling off of the facts by whichever character was nearby. Still, an entertaining read, and if more books of this series come my way I would read them.

this book has the flavor of highlander and the tech of today. i liked the way the author brings out the story and the charcters are likable you want them to win. check out the whole series

The Traveler is similar to books like Ishmael and The Celestine Prophecy, but I thought it was more exciting. It is good to read one of these books every once in a while to give you a healthy sense of skepticism and hope for a better future.
