The SHIVA Syndrome: Science-Fiction and Spirituality--An Intoxicating Mix

Most authors tend to avoid mixing mysticism with science fiction, much less adding in the Clancyesque thriller elements that Alan Joshua includes. The result is an easily readable, believable, and above all human story.
 
HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - Dec. 11, 2015 - PRLog -- When research psychologist Beau Walker is coerced into investigating the destruction of a city near Moscow, the suspense in this story scales up, taking readers into an unprecedented, gripping journey from the hellish depths of a mysterious Russian crater into Shamanic alternate realities.

One reader says, "It's like Altered States on meth and LSD!"

"The SHIVA Syndrome is a sci-fi thriller, a mystery that unfolds on a background of myths and religions, biotechnology, military power, politics, and paranormal human abilities." Portland Book Review

"A page turning, sci-fi thriller." Readers’ Favorite

"Mythology, spirituality, science, politics, genetics, mind-control, military action, paranormal human activity -there is so much going on in this book! I was absolutely captivated from beginning to end, and by captivated, I mean held hostage, as my life was literally put on hold until I finished reading...I’m so glad it was a rainy weekend or I might have felt guilty – maybe." Reader Views:

"At first glance one would think this to be either a sci-fi saga or perhaps a thriller: technically, that’s correct; but it’s so much more. Its focus on untapped human potential gone awry in a deadly experiment also lends to its enjoyment by new age readers or any interested in the paranormal – and let’s not forget the reader who enjoys political intrigue and a bit of spiritual reflection in their reading." The Midwest Book Review

"I would say it is a metaphysical thriller, while knowing that it truly falls under many genres…The SHIVA Syndrome is a thrilling read, and I could definitely imagine this in the theater." The New Consciousness Review

"A surprising, suspenseful, and utterly superb read. The book mixes uncommon palettes and manages a masterpiece with it. It is a surprising, suspenseful, and utterly superb read from start to end. The pay-off is fantastic." Self-Publishing Review
