BOOK REVIEWSSlide10
“
The
meaning
of
improbable
will
be
insufficient
.
It
almost
gets
the
human
under
the
spell
in
this
story
. Adam
Fawer
had
uncovered
a
masterpiece
from
science
,
adventure
intrigue
and
philosophy
.”
Clive
Cussler
“
You’ll
be
suprised
when
you
have
begun
to
think
real
reasons
of
schizoprenia
realised
how a
decision
can
change
human’s
fate
.”

“I
stay
connected
from
the
first
sentence
. I
turned
the
pages
like
a
gambler
,
who
tries
to
make
a
flush
royale
,
open
the
cards
.
Improbable
is a
book
,
which
makes
people
think
the
math
theoires
and
which
combines
wisely
the
allure
of
the
adventure
which
reminds
Micheal
Crichton
and
Robert
Ludium
to
the
reader
.
It
is a
taste
that
should
not be
missed
.”
