Heaven’s Shadow reads like a movie and there is a good reason for that. The authors are screenwriters. David S. Goyer (Batman Begins
and FlashForward
) and Michael Cassutt (many TV shows including Dead Zone
and Stargate SG-1
) combined to write this book which felt (at times) more like a movie pitch than a novel. It’s a combination of Contact
and Armegeddon
that was well told, but not interestingly at times. So, let’s go see what Heaven’s Shadow is.
