The first batch of reader reviews for ZERO POINT have arrived. I'm chuffed to say they're all pretty damn good! First up, I'm honoured to announce that I got my first official endorsement from a fellow novelist. Boyd Morrison, former NASA engineer and the international bestselling science fiction thriller author of The Vault, The Catalyst, Rogue Wave and The Ark, said this about ZERO POINT:
“Nafeez Ahmed has mined his extensive background in international security to create a fast-paced thriller that combines conspiracies, terrorism, and cutting-edge technology. Prepare to hold on for a wild ride!"
Some reviews from the blog tour are coming in too. We got this 5 star review from Mallory Heart Reviews:
"An extraordinarily plotted, high-tech, high-classified-intelligence, "deep background," very near-futuristic adventure, throat-catching, breath-taking, and heart-pounding. The author has decades of research and scholarly study into the fields in which his well-developed characters interact, and reading this pulse-pounding thriller became an education for me as well as an adventure.
If I had to choose which among all the.varied aspects of.this novel remain with me, those would be the author's thoughtful treatment of the protagonist' s PTSD, and his presentation of certain strands of quantum physics, which he made understandable, simultaneously interweaving these with historical elements."
And another 5 star review came in today from Rebecca at Sinister Sinister Speaks:
"ZERO POINT is the first book of The Unraveling Trilogy and starts off with a bang. A literal bang! David Ariel's escort mission goes up in fire when the Prime Minister's vehicle is incinerated. Mass casualties abound. Including all but one other member of Ariel's team. A cryptic message from his Journalist girlfriend in Iraq leads him back to the military he'd rather have left in his past while he fights to uncover the perpetrators of this heinous deed... before the next terrorist attack.
Loaded with thrills, action and intrigue, ZERO POINT should leave you thoroughly satisfied."
And finally, the first Amazon.com review, from a verified purchaser, Paul Walmark - another 5 star:
"A brilliantly-conceived, near future thriller, by an author with impeccable credentials as an investigative journalist. I recommend this one highly!"
Currently, ZERO POINT is doing the rounds on the blogosphere of the literary underworld of cross-genre fiction, so we'll have more updates on reader reception very soon!
Want your copy? You can pick it up easy via Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk in paperback or ebook.
