5.0 out of 5 stars Dream Thief, 21 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This a five-star sci-fi story which with the right special effects would make a blockbuster movie. Rather unusually, it has a psychologist cast in the lead role, and our hero is aboard earth's latest and most sophisticated geostationary space station researching the psychophysiology of sleep in space. The megalomaniac villain has acquired some Martian alien technology, and plans to combine the alien gizmo with the sleep science to create the ultimate mind control weapon.

The story is fairly complex but well paced, and the many and varied characters are very real. Mr Lawhead has a considerable talent for dialogue, which is generally crisp even though the characters sometimes go quite deeply into the technology and philosophy of the issues. Without revealing too much, they pop over to Mars and revive a dormant Guardian-alien, and acquire a gizmo or two of their own from the not-entirely-extinct Martian civilisation...
