Reviews"It's not often I plow through a book in two days. But Blake Crouch's action-packed, brilliantly unique "Recursion" had me up late and shirking responsibilities until I had devoured the last page. A fantastic read." --Andy Weir, #1 New York Times bestselling author of THE MARTIAN "Blake Crouch has invented his own brand of page-turner--fearlessly genre-bending, consistently surprising, and determined to explode the boundaries of what a thriller can be." --Karin Slaughter, #1 bestselling author "Blake Crouch is brilliant. His innovative novels never fail to grip!" --Sarah Pekkanen, New York Times bestselling co-author of THE PERFECT WIFE "Fans eagerly embraced [Crouch's] 2016 Dark Matter, a pulse-pounding thriller...Here, he again combines fast paced action with cutting edge scientific theory, this time taking a deep dive into memory, identity, and their intersections within the human mind. Reminiscent of the best and most fantastic works by Philip K. Dick, this is set to be a bestseller. Crouch is a rising star to watch closely." --Library Journal, "A fantastic read. It's not often I plow through a book in two days. But Blake Crouch's action-packed, brilliantly unique Recursion had me up late and shirking responsibilities until I had devoured the last page." --Andy Weir "Blake Crouch has invented his own brand of page-turner--fearlessly genre-bending, consistently surprising, and determined to explode the boundaries of what a thriller can be." --Karin Slaughter, "A mind-bending thriller." --USA Today "[Crouch] has sketched out the rules for a new reality. . . . [ Recursion ] has a thrumming pulse that moves beyond big ideas and into their effects on a larger, more complex world." --NPR "[ Recursion ] will keep you up all night--first because you can't stop reading it, and then because you can't stop thinking about it." -- BuzzFeed "[An] epic page-turner." -- Good Housekeeping "Quintessential SF . . . [features] wrenching emotional moments . . . tense and vivid action scenes . . . eminently rigorous and logical methodology and science . . . And yet you will not predict anything." -- Locus "[A] fantastic philosophical thriller [with] ingenious plotting, cinematic action and unflappable characters." --Minneapolis StarTribune "Recursion will leave you breathless as it dives headfirst into a strange reality." -- PopSugar "The fragile elements of time, identity, and memory intertwine in Crouch's unforgettable new sci-fi thriller. . . . A lightning-paced, techno-fantasy that lingers long after the last, mind-numbing page." -- SyFy Wire "The smartest, most surprising thriller of the summer." -- BookPage "Crouch isn't just a world-class thriller writer, he's a Philip K. Dick for the modern age. Recursion takes mind-twisting premises and embeds them in a deeply emotional story about time and loss and grief and most of all, the glory of the human heart." --Gregg Hurwitz, #1 internationally bestselling author of the Orphan X series "Blake Crouch has invented his own brand of page-turner--fearlessly genre-bending, consistently surprising, and determined to explode the boundaries of what a thriller can be." --Karin Slaughter, #1 internationally bestselling author of Pieces of Her "Brilliant. Crouch's innovative novels never fail to grip!" --Sarah Pekkanen, #1 New York Times bestselling co-author of The Wife Between Us and An Anonymous Girl "A masterful mind-bender of a novel. Crouch brilliantly infuses his story with dire repercussions and unexpected moral upheaval, and leaves you wondering what you would do if you had the chance to turn back the clock." --Mark Sullivan, #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of the Private series and author of Beneath a Scarlet Sky "Cutting-edge science drives this intelligent, mind-bending thriller. . . . Crouch effortlessly integrates sophisticated philosophical concepts--such as the relationship of human perceptions of what is real to actual reality--into a complex and engrossing plot. Michael Crichton's fans won't want to miss this one." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Completely engrossing . . . highly recommended, especially for readers who enjoy suspenseful, fast-moving, well-crafted, science-based SF." --Library Journal (starred review)

SynopsisNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From the bestselling author of Dark Matter and the Wayward Pines trilogy comes a relentless thriller about time, identity, and memory--his most mind-boggling, irresistible work to date, and the inspiration for Shondaland's upcoming Netflix film. "Gloriously twisting . . . a heady campfire tale of a novel."-- The New York Times Book Review NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY TIME Reality is broken. At first, it looks like a disease. An epidemic that spreads through no known means, driving its victims mad with memories of a life they never lived. But the force that's sweeping the world is no pathogen. It's just the first shock wave, unleashed by a stunning discovery--and what's in jeopardy is not our minds but the very fabric of time itself. In New York City, Detective Barry Sutton is closing in on the truth--and in a remote laboratory, neuroscientist Helena Smith is unaware that she alone holds the key to this mystery . . . and the tools for fighting back. Together, Barry and Helena will have to confront their enemy--before they, and the world, are trapped in a loop of ever-growing chaos.

This reads like a first draft of an idea
This book is terrible. The first 50 pages are super intriguing. Once you get to the first major plot point, it’s all downhill from there. This book is pathetically bad, like if the author asked his 10 year old nephew to be his ghost writer.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
