Summary: A real page turner, Made me think! Intense & exciting!
Review: A sit on the edge of your seat psychological thriller that twists and turns like a sociopath with a reason! A must read for those who like action with a story line full of surprises! I changed my mind about who was the hero and who was the devil or even if there were either. Chilling and enlightning! Quit your day job Mr. Steinberg - You have arrived!

Summary: A Very Gripping Tale of Terror
Review: Can you imagine a person who feels nothing for no one and only lives to further himself? Steinberg has put together a wonderfully intriging novel. I especially like the religious aspects woven into the plot... A must read.....

Summary: Not bad, but could have been better
Review: First let me state that I listened to the abridged (2 tape) audio book version of this book, so the full story could have made my enjoyment of the book rise a notch. All in all, the book was pretty good. It had a good premise and a lot of potential. However, the author didn't go far enough -- in other words, he should have been a little more daring and thrown more action into the book -- anything to raise the suspense level a little higher. But, based on what I read, the author is worth another shot.

Summary: Not Steinbergs Best
Review: Gemini Man is a good bood but lacks a lot of direction. While the main charachter is interesting and very "deep", we never get to see much because the book is muddled with non essential plot. I much prefer and would recommend Steinbergs The Four Phase Man, as it depicts the insides of lethal assassins actually doing what they are trained to do and in the midst struggling to find peace. Much more interesting and the story actually ends and doesn't leave you asking yourself, "Why in the world did I just read this book?" Great main charachter, just wish we could have seen more of him in action.

Summary: Different point of view
Review: Having just read a set of biological thrillers, I came into this novel with a different perspective from the other reviewers. I was expecting more of a discussion of the science, and less focus on the events and actions. From my perspective, it was a thoroughly enjoyable novel, because it did some different things from a standard novel. It was scientific enough to stand as a novel in that genre, yet there was enough action to make it a thriller in its own right - a bit of a dull one, admittedly. Having read about another of the author's works on the back cover, I discovered I should have been reading it as a action novel, not a scientific one. That I could make that mistake all through the novel should say something about the quality of thought that went into it. It would have been all to easy to write a story of how Newman escaped and ran amuck until he was tracked down by a team of brilliant forensic psychologists (something like _Red Dragon_). The author chose to write another story, and in doing so, made it more interesting. The thing that interested me the most was the sliding viewpoint. We are introduced to what appear to be the central characters in the beginning of the novel, yet when all is said and done, some of the central characters are repudiated. This alone makes the book a step away from the formula, and as such, fairly interesting. Walking halfway between scientific thriller and action, yet with some thought and a lack of formula, this book is worth picking up and reading. Not just because it will make you wonder if our government would really do something like that (they probably would), but because it will make you wonder why more authors can't break away from formula to write novels that are this original - in certain senses.

Summary: An engaging novel that is well worth your time
Review: I have to admit, I had some doubts about the book before I started reading it, but I ended up a fan.
The first chapter or two was a little slow going but shortly after the book took off and didn't stop.
I really liked the characters, especially Patricia (the main female character). The play that goes on between Patricia and Brian (the main character - who's as compelling and dark as Hanibal Lechter) is done very well.
My favorite line from the book..."Nod for yes, die for no." A perfectly twisted line.
There are some really good characters here as well as a nicely driven plot.
It's a good ride and well worth the read.

Summary: Action happens late
Review: I think Mr. Stienberg could have done a better job with this book. Grant it Brian Newman was a complex character.Brian Newman could have escaped a little earlyer in the book.If Brian Newman escaped earlyer he could have played some major games with his captors.Especially Patrica Newlly. Also I think Brian Newman should have had an ecounter with Newlly. Newman this animal but yet able to be soft and dominate the so incontrole Newlly deep down inside that character thats what she wanted A man who could take her like a man and be damned raw animal passion thats what Newlly wanted and thats what Newlly needed.
