The Tesla Gate by John D. MimmsReviewed by: Neilliza
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The Tesla Gate is a sci-fi story, which is not my typical book to read. Yes I watch lots of sci-fi movies, but I hate to read them. I gave this book a try and surprisingly good, but sad. This is a heartbreaking story of a man named Thomas Pendleton loosing his wife and son Seth from a car accident. He is a great guy, very loyal and loving, but he is also very busy with work and do not have too much time to spend with his family. He keeps telling himself that he is doing all this for them, but all in all it wasn't the truth. After losing his wife and son, that's the time he realized that he wish he can go back in time and get a chance to spend time with them. He misses his son and wife so much, yes he was a workaholic, but he was also very much in love with his wife and loves his son so very much. One day when a cosmic storm enters Earth’s atmosphere, the dead started showing. The first day Thomas sees his son, he thought he is hallucinating. He was a little afraid at first, until they started spending time together.
Get your tissues ready for this one, because the father and son time together are really heartwarming, but heartbreaking at the same time. Also Seth is a very cute and smart 6yr old, you cannot help but love him.
After getting Seth back in any form he is in, Thomas was very eager to take his son to a trip he promised him before he died. On the way, they went through a lot of things, even getting kidnapped on the way.
The dead are suddenly being called impals and are not welcome on earth. While the scientist work on their machine to send them all back to where they came from, Thomas and Seth are running for their lives and running out of options on what to do. Will they save themselves and live their lives just the way they are? Or will they be sent into the oblivion? Read the book and find out.
"And if tonight my soul may find her peace in sleep, and sink in good oblivion, and in the morning wake like a new-opened flower then I have been dipped again in God, and new-created." - D.H. Lawrence
