Product Description
In “Shadow Play,” Nick is a graduate student at a major Chicago medical university who assists in the development of a new technology called synaptic reflex that will be able to superimpose a “healthy” psyche over an “unhealthy” psyche. While testing the technology on himself, Nick sees two murders from the past. Before Nick plunges into madness, he sees the murder of his own father. In “Rabbitt Whole,” Emma wakes up in a hospital room with no memory. Luckily her good friend Bob is there to help her remember. In “Synapse,” Randa is a former cop undergoing “treatments” for synaptic reflex control. Hopefully several treatments will eliminate an annoying thing called “residual matter.” |

Great new approach to the classic medical sci-fi genre by C. Mc Manus (Chicago, IL United States)  4 Stars
March 27, 2009
Synapse is a great book with an intriguing plot interwoven into three short stories. It's a fresh approach to the classic medical sci-fi genre. Well-meaning scientists try to "improve" the human mind, but the questionable ethics of their tactics is thought-provoking. Think Robin Cook meets Minority Report or Blade Runner - if you like those, you'll like this!

Intriguing Book by M. VanMaldegiam (Illinois) 4 Stars
August 17, 2008
Synapse by N.L. Silk is an intriguing science fiction novel, leaving me wanting to know what will happen to the characters next. It's the first time that I have ever completed a novel in a week - I couldn't put it down. My husband pulled an all-nighter and finished it in 24 hours - which he has not done since reading the Harry Potter series. It was clever the way the author tied the three separate stories together with a common theme.
