Ilustration In Favor Of Books The Hollow Man
Jeremy Bremen has a secret. All his life he's been cursed with the ability to read minds. He knows the secret thoughts, fears, and desires of others as if they were his own. For years, his wife, Gail, has served as a shield between Jeremy and the burden of this terrible knowledge. But Gail is dying, her mind ebbing slowly away, leaving him vulnerable to the chaotic flood of thought that threatens to sweep away his sanity.Now Jeremy is on the run--from his mind, from his past, from himself--hoping to find peace in isolation. Instead he witnesses an act of brutality that propels him on a treacherous trek across a dark and dangerous America. From a fantasy theme park to the lair of a killer to a sterile hospital room in St. Louis, he follows a voice that is calling him to witness the stunning mystery at the heart of mortality.

Wow. Great book. I was hooked on the first page and absolutely loved how the story played out. The dark themes were intriguing and poignant. I couldn't put it down.Had to put this book down. To sleep. As in never read entirely. Scant few novels bore me such as this one did.
A somewhat confused book with thriller, SF and supernatural elements, was ok but nothing to write home about.I picked this one out of the several Dan Simmons books I still haven't read, because it was relatively short. I was kind of tired of his 600+ page works which were ok but felt bloated, and which I thought would have been better had they been somewhat shorter. Anyway, with The Hollow Man I didn't know what to expect, as I didn't read the back cover introduction. Besides Hyperion, I haven't

A rather boring, totally unremarkable book. There is an interesting premise here that fades after the first twenty pages when you realize the author isn't concerned with pursuing it at all.The initial conceit, presented on the first page or two of the novel, is that the main character is a telepath who shares a very strong (and unique) telepathic connection with his wife, who is the only author telepath the characters have ever encountered. She's sick, and she dies within the first few pages of
This is a Dan Simmons I had missed, and have been looking for for a while. It's got the very best blurb by Steven King on the back jacket, calling "The Hollow Man" an "un-put downable book" - as indeed it is. Simmons ventures far into the extremely difficult aspects of chaos theory and its attendant math. This was written in 1992, and this fact alone makes most of the computer references obsolete - still, descriptions and mathematical formulae continue to hold their locked doors. This is all a
For me, Dan Simmons is a safe bet. He's such a good writer that, even if I'm not on board with the plot and characters, the writing itself is strong enough to keep me reading to the end. This particular novel is one that is extremely well-written, filled with haunting images and scenarios that stayed with me for hours, but has a weak concept. Simmons doesn't seem to know whether to make this book horror or science fiction, so it ends up straddling the line between the two genres and not serving
This is the first time I see the ideas of Karl Pribram's holonomic model of the brain explored in fiction (in oversimplifying terms, what if the human mind is both a multitude of holograms and an instrument for interpreting the holograms of the vaster reality around us?), and the result is fairly inspiring. The story wades across some very dark places but ultimately reaches for the light. The main characters demonstrate surprising amounts of emotion(view spoiler)[ (I admit that watching K-dramas
