Steven Gould had a hit with his book Jumper(my review), which was not only popular, but also spawned a movie. Gould has expanded on the book with three sequels. Two sequels to the book and one sequel to the movie (which doesn’t have the exact same plot as the book). Since I enjoyed the first book, I decided I should check out the first book sequel, Reflex. It was decent, but not quite as enjoyable as the original novel. Let’s check out what happens.

Jumper by Steven Gould
I came to this book the long way around. I first saw the movie Jumper and thought it was an interesting premise, marred by bad execution and a ridiculous final half. Not knowing much about the book, I wasn’t in a rush to read it. But I heard good things about the book (and how it was better than the movie), so I finally tracked it down and read Steven Gould’s Jumper. I’m happy to report that it’s much better than the movie, but still has some issues. Let’s go check it out.
