Lovers of apocalyptic slow-burn sci-fi novels with a blend of conspiracy and drama will find it hard to put down Bruce Meisterman’s The Light Inerrant. The author bases the storyline on a tale of deceit, betrayal, blackmail, loyalty, religion, politics, conspiracies, science, greed, and secrets. His choice of words gives the book a sharp intellectual tone. The conversations were stimulating and engrossing. The vast number of role players includes hypocritical preachers, cunning politicians, ambitious scientists, information-thirsty reporters, and publicity-seeking bureaucrats. Bruce contrasts the complex personalities involved while maintaining a grip on reality. This made it easy for me to connect with them and follow the plot. Adam Faraday is a super-intelligent scientist with an intriguing perspective of the world. Together with Fran Porter, they form a hungry team that will stop at nothing in their hunt for answers.
The Light Inerrant is available at Novel bookstore and Amazon.

Writer, author and photographer Bruce Meisterman is known for his non-fiction documentary book Arn? Narn. He has since turned to writing fiction. He has now written his second book of fiction The Light Inerrant.
All light, the sun, stars, electrical, and reflections, disappear only to return momentarily, again and again. Not surprisingly, fear spreads across the globe. It will take a dedicated group of scientists to discover light has become sentient. And that's not even the biggest surprise they'll encounter.
His first book of fiction A Coward's Guide to Living could best be described as Homer's Odyssey meets Thelma and Louise, minus Louise.
Most people start their mornings with a cup of coffee. Jacob Will's started with attending the funeral of his best friend. And in a letter left for him by the deceased, he was charged with getting his act together - big time. It would take him across the country into places he never thought of visiting, interacting with people for the first time in a genuine way, and finding and then losing love.
