This book would make a kick-ass action movie. As a novel though, for what it was, it was great, as the plot was quick-paced and the action was intense. What it lacked was in-depth character development, as the characters were a little one-dimensional; there was the flawed nice-guy protagonist, the tough sexy girl, the crazy brother, the bad ass with a heart... and their motives were obvious and expected. BUT, for this novel it was more about the science and the action than the character development, so it didn't really bring it down. I thought the idea behind the plot was pretty cool and the little explanations of the science for the layperson (eg. Leplace and probability theory) made it seem plausible, or should I say not Improbable, haha. Then again, I'm not a science person, so I can't attest to the reality of the science. Overall, the novel was entertaining and a fun summer read. Great for the beach!
