Wow. This is a book that gets your brain a working. It's who done it cat and mouse story that takes you from reality into an alternate world. The author did a great job with this story. It is unique and keeps the reader engrossed from beginning to end. The story is well written and quite a page turner.

Reading this story you wonder what is real for the characters and what is not. It isn't confusing at all with that. Written like a mystery you follow detective Bruce Durante and Jason Tanner on the search for the true Comfort Killer. You get to see the story from both if their perspectives. One sees the real world while the other is seeing an alternate one at times. The two worlds collide and the truth comes out. When I found out which world was real I was in shock. The biggest shock of all comes at the end when you find out why the killer is killing their victims.

DiSemblance reads more like a Sci-Fi story than a Techno/Thriller. Holodecks like out of Star Trek and digital copies of people interacting as if it really is them. It's all good because it was pretty interesting. With the talk of computers and such the dialog of the book was not dragged down with a lot tech terms. I am one who doesn't like to read a book that requires a glossary of terms. That's not the case in this book. But it's not all about the techie stuff, there is also a mystery within the book too involving the Comfort Killer. Solving this becomes interesting as the reader since you have two worlds going on at the same time.

I like Jason's character. He is established as the hero from the beginning when he saves Boston from some gang thugs. He seems hesitant to be a hero. That is what happens when you save someone, you are a hero. Jason keeps his distance most of the time with people, he tries to protect his father's work with the holodeck. Things for Jason change when he makes a gutsy move and him and his brother make a run for it. Now he has to be around people more and he embraces the hero label by trying to save his father and others. Detective Bruce was a good guy also, even though he tends to let his work come before his own life. I guess that is the life of a cop, right?

Overall thoughts of this book were that I was amazed at how much I enjoyed reading it. DiSemblance was very intricate and the author did a great job. I recommend this book to readers age 15+

I received this book courtesy of the author in exchange for an honest review.
