5.0

If you’ve ever wished that Sheldon Cooper from the Big Bang Theory would get a chance to star in a sci-fi thriller, you’re in luck. The protagonist of "Piercing the Veil" is Simon, who, incidentally, is also a “too smart for his own good” physics geek. He’s fascinated with dark matter, which is why it’s puzzling to him when students start to disappear on campus and he learns that the explanations might not be so simple. Simon learns the hard way that being curious doesn’t always prepare one for the truth, as he hears from someone else. Things lead to a riveting conclusion and the kind of ending that makes for a satisfying read. It’s a quick read that fans who like their sci-fi dark will enjoy as well as horror fans who enjoy sci-fi themes. The story also has a lot of depth and intriguing layers that highlight not only the author’s skill but also a story with substance.
