Artificial Absolutes: Mary Fan

14/2/2015

 
Picture
Artificial Absolutes follows Jane and Devin Colt, children of mogul, Victor Colt. Jane is working in an office and Devin is hoping to bury his dark past when he finally marries the woman he loves. Their lives are changed dramatically when Devin discovers a secret and Jane witnesses an abduction of her best friend. Disbelieved and with Devin falsely accused of murder, Jane sides with him to chase around the galaxy, looking for her friend and hoping to find the proof of Devin's innocence.

This book is great.... it really is great. The world is so well realised that the story flows beautifully. There is nothing here that requires willful suspension of disbelief because the author has a great grasp of society and how it may evolve. I loved the fact that we weren't on Earth and that Earth was barely mentioned. 

Jane is a great female character, feisty, independent, cynical yet whimsical. Her desire to help her brother and her friend are genuine and she leaps off the page. 

Devin is also a great character. He is someone who has failed and tripped badly in the past but is trying to put it far from him.

I haven't read a science fiction book that I've enjoyed this much in a long time. It's well written with excellent characters and I thoroughly, wholeheartedly recommend it.
