Not the sort of ending that gives one hope
Revisado: 03-30-22
The series is very gripping but it turned into a pessimistic Theistic Evolution myth in the last book. The non-Christian ending and "explanation" for the meaning and purpose of life was very disappointing. To bad it took 7 books to get there. While evolutionary thought was implicitly behind all of the books, it was not fully revealed until the end. After book 6 it could still have had a "happy" ending. Book 7 is not that book.

Historia
If anyone could be considered a Russian counterpart to the infamous British double-agent Kim Philby, it was Oleg Gordievsky. The son of two KGB agents and the product of the best Soviet institutions, the savvy, sophisticated Gordievsky grew to see his nation's communism as both criminal and philistine. He took his first posting for Russian intelligence in 1968 and eventually became the Soviet Union's top man in London, but from 1973 on he was secretly working for MI6.

Suspenseful historical account of a russian spy
Revisado: 11-08-21
This is not historical fiction, but a suspenseful recounting of the life of the cold war Russian spy Gordievsky who became a British double agent. Parts of the narrative are edge-of-your-seat thrilling but parts are merely a retelling of facts.

Good stories with good morals
Revisado: 02-22-21
These stories do a good job of filling in some back story and teach good lessons about personal character, but it did not tell us about Gurgle.

An entertaining atheist pipedream
Revisado: 02-10-21
An interesting sequel, but the ending ignores the problem of evil. The human soul is more than its physical architecture, otherwise there is no such thing as free will.

Historia
Sam Miracle's life is made up of dreams - dreams where he's a courageous, legendary hero instead of a foster kid with two bad arms that can barely move. Sometimes these dreams feel so real, they seem like forgotten memories. And sometimes they make him believe that his arms might come alive again. But Sam is about to discover that the world he knows and the world he imagines are separated by only one thing: time. And that separation is only an illusion.

Story kept me meanwhile driving 12 hours. It is a well built story of good guy vs bad guy without too many "mechanisms" pulled out of thin air.
