The Premonition: A Pandemic Story by Michael Lewis (Hardcover, 2021)

Breath taking page turner!

A breath taking page turning thriller that reads like a book version of the film “Contagion”…only the shocking bit is this is an actual account of the covid-19!! The author makes the characters vivid, the conversations and “action” spring to the imagination without effort and there’s no sentences wasted with lovely descriptions of buildings, trees, settings which is part of any usual fiction story.
This is truly jaw dropping in the expose of government inefficiency and criminal neglect. The unsung heroes which even today, we do not recognise, should be lauded!
Highly, highly recommend this book for any fans of Lee Childs, Michael Critchton, Grisham, etc. Fans of non-fiction- a must read to realise just how stunning humanity can be and just how awful, ignorant and inept our elected officials CHOOSE to be.
It will make your blood boil to realise just how so many deaths were avoidable. Covid-19 is a living organism without choice or morality. Our elected officials and workers have these things. Who/what is the real enemy?
Fantastic book!Read full review
