Imagine looking at a beautiful star filled sky and see it turn black before your eyes. It happens to Tyler DuPree, 12 years of age, and his best friends, Jason and Diane Lawton. Not only have the stars disappeared but also the moon. The incident, known as the Big Blackout, is soon found to be caused by a membrane that encloses the earth and becomes known by the term Spin.
Jason is an exceptionally bight young man and his father promotes him shamelessly. He becomes a scientist who devotes his entire life to studying the phenomena. Diane, frightened, turns to religion for solace and marries a man who is more dedicated to the faith than she. Tyler becomes a physician. The three go their separate ways, and, like many friend, find themselves getting in touch occasionally.
When Jason becomes ill, he contacts Tyler and hires him as his personal physician. Jason's illness brings the three friends together again. The world is a different one from when they were children. The sun is dying. The membrane is flickering. People are frightened and trust no one. Some commit suicide. Some live dangerously because they may die tomorrow. Jason, Tyler and Diane work to find their way through a world gone made with fear and distrust.
I liked this read so much that I looked for other books by the author to put on reading list. Perhaps you will like it, too.
