An exciting read,
By "airys" (Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fatal Defect: A Genetic Thriller (Paperback)
A worthy continuation in the Ethan Hamilton Saga with one marked difference: more of an emphasis on genetics. Now the director of his own counter-cyberterrorism team, Ethan discovers something about a cutting-edge company in the genetic manipulation sector. GeneSys is creating an airborn version of botulism -- for a terrorist group...and they've disappeared from GlobeNet. The only hope of stopping the terrorists from obtaining it is through an inside person - gene-splicing technician Tamara Mack, a new Christian struggling to reconcile her faith with her job.The book is full of action, as in the previous two, but the scenes are mostly played out in the 'real world'. There are still the wonderful moments when Ethan can cyber-kick the bad guys...and there's plenty of humor for all. There is more than one antagonist; one in reality as well as one in cyberspace...which makes for quite thrilling reading. The story is solid and the concepts well researched -- I'd love to see this one made into a movie. If nothing else, get it for its jacket -- the cover art is truly creative.

Great Book!,
By "whistlingeagle" (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fatal Defect: A Genetic Thriller (Paperback)
All three of the Ethan Hamilton books are fantastic - I love the adventure and intelligent plots.If you haven't read Virtually Eliminated or Terminal Logic start there first. Fatal Defect kept me turning the pages - I had to know how it would work out. It combines great adventure with a modern high-tech twist - a definite good read!

WYSIWYG--What You See Is What You Get!,
By Eric Wilson "novelist" (Nashville, TN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fatal Defect: A Genetic Thriller (Paperback)
One look at this book and I was intrigued. Then, a moment of doubt clouded my purchasing-decision-mode--could I judge this book by its cover? I've been wrong before. I purchased it anyway, and no, I wasn't disappointed. WYSIWYG...I've come to count on Scott's novels for cyber-action, leavened with humor, sprinkled with a pinch of Christian lessons, and full of likeable characters. Gillette and Hamilton's interaction is always enjoyable, as is Hamilton's relationship with his family. Like Tom Clancy's character, Jack Ryan, Ethan Hamilton keeps climbing the professional ladder, finding greater demand for his skills in each novel. I hope their are more rungs to this ladder. It's not everyday I find well-written Christian fiction, but Jefferson Scott's novels are worth it. If you can't locate them, keep looking. Blame me if you're disappointed.
