Universe of Two by Stephen P. Kiernan
4.0
This book is inspired by, and loosely based on, Charles Fisk. Fisk worked on the detonator team for the Manhattan Project during World War II. Kiernan did a great job writing this book, immersing me in the imaginary world of Charlie Fish. So good, that I felt the story was 100% real. He also separated the two lives (the real Charles Fisk and the fictional character Charlie Fish) well but still gave justice to the real Charles Fisk.
I highly recommend Universe Of Two. The romance between Charlie and Brenda was genuine and realistic. I could feel their emotions through the pages of the book. The historical fiction part was well written. I really like how Kieran incorporated science and its implications that could affect the entire world. My only complaint is that the ending was short and we only saw a little glimpse of what Charlie and Brenda’s relationship looked like after the war. I wish we could have seen how Charlie’s involvement in the war affected his relationship with his wife and how affected his mental health.
