Oneiro

An insightful, robust and at times violent techno thriller with literary merit, Onerio by John S. Goldenberg is first in a series that offers high-octane action with spellbinding intrigue. Oneiro is Greek for dream and in the case of Philip Carr all he—or most anyone—has ever dreamed has just come to fruition. From the plush confines of Manhattan to a veritable paradise, this top-notch lawyer has paid his dues only to learn one never stops paying. In a rush of action and a not so farfetched string of events, Philip finds himself in charge of a small island and the university that is nestled on its stunning shores. None of his talents are overlooked as he begins to sort out the lay of the land. Unwittingly, he acts a catalyst and discerns the island’s rather credulous academics are unaware that the technology they create will be used for malice, sin and vice. In paradise, true evil is even more insidious…against their innocence reigns a wickedness few will survive.

5A Good Start on a Four Volume Saga  Jan 28, 2010
By John Matlock "Gunny"
A monumental first novel. It's said to be the first of a four part saga, but it doesn't appear that the subsequent books have appeared.

It is surprising that in a first novel he starts the story with a couple of short vignettes that quickly get you to wondering what is going to happen, specifically you are wondering just who are the bad guys and at whom are they so mad.

This book is not exactly what I'd call science fiction. It is rather like some of the stories that have come out in recent years that make some guesses as to what science will reveal in the near future. The hero is kind of a superman. But again not an uncommon technique to use in a story.

All in all, a good story, and I indeed hope that this is the start of a four volume story.

5nice surprise  Oct 11, 2010
By Vercruysse Freddy
I have to admit that I am used to read science fictions. A friend passed this roman
and I had to change my opinion. No, science fiction novels are not "minor" literature.
This book has convinced and I am eager to start reading the next ones
