MIND BOGGLING WHIRLWIND —this was the insanity of madcap drama layered upon horror and adventure and more mad drama (inspired rather loosely by Shakespeare’s The Tempest)
 
Perhaps a bit prophetic… 
 
It’s Sci-fi and a twisted romance and a cyclical drama. It’s religious criticism and social commentary and an analysis of the dynamics of relationships. Dips a toe in fringe psychoanalytical discovery and exploring the depths of the psyche. It’s a fast-paced scream of a thriller as much as undulating red-alert prophecy… Inject a super rich super villain or two… 
 
Captivating from start to end. Highly satisfying, even if at times utterly confusing, but what an ending… What a Ride. So fast-paced it was difficult to keep up, but also impossible to put down!
