This book has been lingering on my to-be-read shelf for a really long time.  An embarrassingly long time.  (My sincere apologies to Steve N. Lee, the author, who personally sent me a copy and asked me to review it.)  The book is What if . . . ? and it’s by Steve N. Lee.

And still, I have only read the first and last of it.  I’m just too crazy-busy but don’t want to put off this blog post another minute.  (I do not possess the brain power to follow the intriguing plot at the moment.  Alas.)

So, let me tell you what some other people have said about it:

Testament

What if . . .? is a fast-paced tale brimming with surprises and twists.  Well-developed characters and a gripping plo will excite even fans of James Patterson and James Rollins.  Devotees of television shows such as ‘Heroes’ will find it especially appealing.  What if . . . ? is a very good read indeed.”  –Brian O’Connell, President REACT Services.

Know Thy Enemy full Great New Book Helps International Charity Save the Children
Do you love a good book or know someone who does? Or do you care about poverty and the environment? If so, this thriller is a must-read!
‘Deftly and intriguingly written, “What if…?” is a thriller that fans of other novels such as “The DaVinci Code” will relish. Highly recommended.’ John Taylor, Midwest Book Review.
‘What if…?’ is a real page-turner, blending political intrigue and roller-coaster action with a thought-provoking exploration of how we might build a green, socially just world where every man, woman and child truly is equal. Shootouts, car chases and conspiracies are interwoven with human rights and environmental crises, creating a chilling, real-life picture of the world and a story that’s as moving as it is thrilling.

It’s about a mysterious New Yorker who’s catapulted to fame by the media when he seems able to heal with just a touch. Exploiting his celebrity status to reach people, he wages a political war to end global poverty which thrusts him into a deadly struggle with the White House that likes the world just the way it is: under its control – poverty, disease, wars and all. The Shaggy Dog the movie
Steve N. Lee, the author, says, “I wrote ‘What if…?’ because I had a terrific roller coaster of a story to tell. Whilst researching its themes, though, I couldn’t help but be moved by what I learned: poverty kills 24,000 children every single day. Knowing that, I can’t sit idly by and do nothing – for every book sold through this website $4 (£3 U.K orders) goes to the charity Save the Children which feeds the world’s poorest kids. $4 might seem like nothing to you and me, but it’s enough to feed a Third World child for nearly a month!”

“Lee’s vision is precise, poetic, and skillfully crafted. It’s great writing with a great story, very well told.” Nicholas Grabowsky, Bestselling Novelist
