About this listen

When the government thinks they have a lead on an inexpensive energy source, they throw together a research project for it, disregarding some unfortunate occurrences with similar research previously. The theory is that they can create a wormhole that will constantly allow energy through, then they'll convert the energy into electricity and feed it into the grid. Maxwell Carter works a maintenance job at a government research facility.

The research lab he works at has an accident, more energy coming through the wormhole than anticipated, enough to completely rupture the shields that were supposed to contain it until they finished determining how to convert the energy into electricity. Previously harmless animals are changed to nightmare threats and people are dying, seemingly due to incidents related directly to their interests.

Max and his friend Ron make it out of the facility alive, although the rest of the people in the facility aren't so lucky. The strangeness that was surrounding the labs seems to be expanding, even reaching his home within a day or two. Now strange screens, reminiscent of some of the online games he's played, are appearing in his vision, and apparently Prometheus, the AI running on the supercomputer from the research lab, is the one in charge of it all and is dedicated to spreading this new energy worldwide.

Meh.

It's an interesting premise and definitely had potential. The character development is a little slow, but given that it's the first book in what looks like a series I was going to give it time to develop. That was until they introduced the character Vicks. I gave it a few more chapters after she came into the storyline, but then I had to return the title . The mindless adoration was just too much and the main protagonist who is in his late 30s feels like he has the maturity level of a 14 year old.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
