Normally, when I pick up a "Mongo" book, I have already entered a state of quite willing disbelief. Generally, I've saved one as a special treat for myself, but Mr. Chesbro definitely needs to write faster, as I am catching up with him!This time, however, the suspension didn't need to travel quite so far. This time, the book gave me cold chills.Don't get me wrong. Mr. Chesbro is ALWAYS fascinating, and I love the characters in the Mongo series... but this particular book I just finished, and it was close enough to reality [or maybe it IS reality] that it is actually scarry! Not that I think his perceptions are wrong - it's just that I'm terribly afraid that they are correct. I've always believed in the power of words - I just had not carried that thought to such a conclusion, but I should have. Thank you, Mr. Chesbro - it was not only entertaining - it was enlightening!
