Description:Preble Jefferson can see five seconds into the future. When government agencies become aware of his skill, Preble will do whatever it takes to protect his family.Winner, 2025 Locus Award for best science fiction book of 2024Winner, CIBA Mark Twain grand prize winner for best satire of 2024Finalist, Foreword Reviews for best thriller of 2024Finalist, Eric Hoffer Award Locus Magazine Best Science Fiction of 2024"10 for 2024" Year-End Best Books List “One of the most dazzling and inventive [books] I’ve read in a very long time—a novel I continue to describe as indescribable. Boldizar has been compared to Jorge Luis Borges, Joseph Heller and Stephen King, and that says much of what you can expect when you enter the world of The Man Who Saw Seconds. I’ve now read the book twice, and I can’t decide if it’s a thriller, a farce, a political commentary. I don’t know what it is other than I love it.”—Jim Fusilli, Writers at Work“The Man Who Saw Seconds is an action thriller that is genuinely thrilling: the pacing is perfect, and the stakes ratchet up in a horrifying, relentless, and seemingly inevitable progression...I hope this can be genre-spanning, and that it gets the attention it deserves from every awards list, science fiction and not.”–Locus Magazine“A wildly ambitious masterpiece of speculative fiction that fires on all cylinders. With its blend of audacious ideas, blistering action, emotional heft, and sparkling prose, it instantly establishes Alexander Boldizar as a major voice in sci-fi. Highly recommended for readers looking for a thrilling yet cerebral experience that pushes the boundaries of the genre and the mind itself. A bold, visionary triumph.”–Hidden Sci-Fi "This is a book of cinematic velocity and frequent, dark satiric impact. Think of it as a brilliant exercise in multi genre collage, a mash-up of some of the best elements of the thriller, the novel of ideas, anarchism, philosophy and quantum theory."—Vancouver Sun“Wickedly smart, outrageously funny, and unsettling in its accuracy. The satire is pointed, and the action is non-stop. Think: Elmore Leonard meets Nabokov, Michael Crichton meets Vonnegut, Carl Hiaasen meets Joseph Heller. And it has what is probably the best gunfight in literary history. But this book is more than a fast-paced satire. It’s a warning for America, for the world, really. And, at its core, it’s a poignant love story. The Man Who Saw Seconds is destined to be a classic and, with it, Boldizar’s place as one of literature’s most important satirical writers is assured.”—Kevin Winchester, ‍Sunflower DogWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
