The Great Divide
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I've finished reading The Great Divide, enthralled of course, and am now ready to send it on to a friend who will enjoy it quite as much, I guarantee. But in view of my prejudice against the packaged penultimate-chapter detailed-penetration sex in so many current popular novels, I want especially to congratulate the authors on their handling of this requisite sex scene. Well and cleverly done!
You won't be able to stop reading this

A gripping political thriller, this book is disturbingly timely. Opening with the US crippled by A Middle East oil embargo precipitated by an incompetent president who bombs Iraq...a nation deeply divided...and the story unfolds from there. All this and a charming love story, too. I'd advise waiting to start reading until you have time to finish it in one sitting, because you won't be able to stop.

This book held me in place for three and one-half days and I hated for the story to end although I loved the ending. This is a believeable blow by blow story from the perspective of the insiders trying to overthrow the United States government and those defending it. The authors' use of dates and hours for each step of the way holds the reader in a state of tension and expectation for hours at a time. It is a story of power lust, academic corruption, misuse of police power and unbridled ambition versus a death defying sense of loyalty and high intelligence on the part of the protagonists defending the Union in the twentyfirst century.

Echoes of the Manchurian Candidate

This political thriller is eerily on target--an oil crisis, challenges to the constitution, powerful people playing by their own rules to destroy democracy as we know it. I loved this gripping book.

I picked "The Great Divide" up in the summer reading section of my super market and read it straight through. Now I'm buying copies to give to friends.It's a thriller about the future. But it's based on the things we are seeing today. Take a look at gas prices this summer! And don't forget the mess in the Middle East. Much more fun than reading about a comet hitting the earth. And much more to think about too.
