When in doubt at the library, I tend to pick something with a fancy cover. The Eye of God fit that bill and turned out to be pretty good too.
It did a good job of mixing up some truth with fiction. So while I know it’s fiction, there is some sort of realism kinda to the plot. The plot also mixed up tech with religion, which tends to be interesting to read.d Thankfully there’s an addendum at the back that explains what was true and what was made up.
The pacing was pretty cool, and I found myself really reading that extra chapter to see how things turned out towards the end.
I was also glad to read the alternate quantum physics ending (makes sense if you read it). It made me happier for a few of the characters in the end.
