Ike Jordan dreams of gravity’s polarity. He dreams of himself upon the field of the earth, staring into the darkening sky, arms outstretched. His father’s voice whispers, “Gravity can push you into the sky as easily as pull you toward the earth.”

Fully awake and inducted into his father’s work with secret gravity technology -- fantastical as it is -- Ike’s worldview, emotions, and relationships turn upside down. Caught up in his father’s secret, he can’t tell Christine Wall about his nights cruising among the stars, or tell his best friend Charlie about chasing the sun over the horizon. He can only pour his angst into the perfection of flight, flying like a lonely, dark angel over the nighttime lights of Phoenix, Arizona.

Before long, he is chasing his own ego, flying so high that no one can keep up, in danger of flying too close to the sun.

5,0 su 5 stelle Enjoyable and profound
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 28 maggio 2013

This was a book that I really found intriguing on several levels. I loved the science fiction concept that gravity, like magnetism, has the ability to be both a positive and a negative force and that properly understood, it could become the mechanism through which man could fly. I think we have all wished at some point we could fly, not just from city to city like we do in an airplane, but personally, like a bird, and go wherever we might wish. Unlike much science fiction which takes such a large leap of credulity that it makes it difficult to imagine as real, the author presented this concept in a manner that made it very believable. Indeed, I found myself wondering, is the author really on to something here that could be developed. The story is told through the eyes of a young man in his late teens and it unfolded in a way that caused me to reflect upon my own teen years and those of my children. But I think the part of the book that intrigued me the most was the exploration of the question of where the inspiration comes from that has lead to the most complex and important discoveries of science. Yes, the scientist prepares himself and makes diligent inquiring into the subject matter, but is there something more that at some point helps him or her put it all together and understand things as they have never been understood before. From what I have read of some of the world's great scientist, I think this is an important concept to be explored and understood and I liked where the author led me. I highly recommend the book and think you will find it fascinating. It is a book that would lend itself beautifully to a wonderful movie. I am anxious for a sequel to explore these concepts even further.

4,0 su 5 stelle A solid first novel
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 1 giugno 2013

A well done first novel. Isaac discovers that his dad has invented an anti-gravity suit that allows the wearer to control how gravity affects them - whether it pushes or pulls. Isaac becomes a test pilot for the suit and tries to convince his dad to share the secret with the world.

The book is a modern re-imagining of the Icarus myth and does a great job of creating a compelling and believable sci-fi technology. The flying scenes were some of my favorites and Mr. Craig has a real gift for describing action sequences in ways that are compelling and understandable, which is no easy feat.

My one criticism of the book is that because Isaac is based on Icarus (who famously died because of his pride.) he come across as a bit of a jerk and isn't always very likable. The scenes with his friends were less compelling than the flight sequences, but still helped round out the character.

Overall, worth the read. A good, solid novel with great a toon sequences and an emotional finish.

5,0 su 5 stelle Captivating novel!

I would not ordinarily read a book of this genre, but it was highly recommended to me by friends. While I didn't understand or fully appreciate some of the science and physics involved in the sky falling, it sounded plausible enough for me to think that maybe Ike and Daniel could have accomplished this feat! Being a resident of Phoenix, I enjoyed the references to the various landmarks. Stephen Craig has a wonderful way with words in the way he painted not only the physical surroundings, but the way he brought the characters to life. I was caught up in the drama Ike shared with his friends and especially the love and respect (most of the time) he had for his father. Toward the end, I could not stop reading. I was completely caught up in the surprise ending and I am hoping for a sequel. Amye Godfrey
