Book Reviews of Sleeper Code (Part 1 in the Sleeper Conspiracy)
Book Review: Sleeper Code review by: Jess R.
Summary: 5 Stars
As the progression of scientific development brings forth new controversial concepts, mankind is faced with the consequences of their own curiosity. This book, Sleeper Code, explores one of the many potential government conspiracies from the perspective of a relatable teenage character, Tom Lovett. Due to his rare disorder, Quentin's Narcolepsy, Tom finds himself spontaneously falling asleep. This inevitable fate seemed to him to be nothing more than part of the routine until he discovers it is nothing more than a lie.
Tom, who was once limited by his disorder, discovers that his rare condition has been exploited by a small branch of weapons development called Pandora. In their eternal quest for a more potent weapon, Pandora discovered a method of mind control that can be used to create a perfect weapon. The individuals with Tom's rare condition can be physiologically changed from the average human mentality to a sociopath with the trigger of a narcoleptic attack. Although the scientists of Pandora have revolutionized weapons development, corruption is accompanied with their discovery. The discreet antagonist Brandon Kavanah is able to sell their soldiers to highest bidders unidentified. This ever-present endeavor ensures an interesting and erratic plot.
One weakness of the book was the end's predictability. Although the plot itself was intriguing, I found that the general ending was somewhat of a let down compared to the preceding engrossing plot line.
Overall, Sleeper Code was very compelling for the reader. It provoked much thought and left the reader craving more of the enticing plot. It also brought forth a new perspective of man's true potential for knowledge, and man's true aptitude for evil as science progresses.
Summary of Sleeper Code (Part 1 in the Sleeper Conspiracy)
Teenager Tom Lovett suffers from a rare form of narcolepsy that can knock him out for days at a time. At least, this is what his parents and doctors have always told him. But Tom?s about to make a shocking discovery: He?s actually a sleeper assassin. His narcoleptic "fits" are cover for his horrific missions. In fact, his entire life has been a lie. The truth is, Tom shares a body with Tyler Garrett, a separate personality who has committed coldblooded murder without a second thought. Now, Tom is on a mission to take down the evil agency that created him. But can he also fight the evil within himself? In the tradition of The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy, Sleeper Code and Sleeper Agenda are a two-part white-knuckle thrill ride that will keep readers riveted to the very last page.Fantasy Books
