When you are home alone, are you sure you are really alone?...
Max calls himself a Man Who is Not. After he discovers a way to dematerialize a human body, he has even more possibilities than the Invisible Man had. Passing through walls and being in any place at will is no longer a problem. There’s another problem: he finds himself caught between a cult of professional assassins and a criminal gang both gunning for his invention. Who will be the first to get it? Things get even wilder when Max learns he is not the only one who can transform into an intangible state. There are others. And those "others" have abilities that are far more advanced than those of any earthling.
About the Intangibleworld Series:
After an extraterrestrial ship crashes on Earth, the alien crew gets reborn in the bodies of regular earthlings to confront the enemy who are intent on enslaving humanity. Faced with this malice, the crew members discover their unusual mental abilities and the “intangible” world where they have to learn to do things without their bodies. Meanwhile, their mad rival also becomes more and more unpredictable and dangerous with each passing day.
Edward Akhramovich, Executive Producer of the group of companies “Art Nation“:
“I’ve known Christina and Alexander Astremsky for a while and worked a lot with them as screenwriters. I really appreciate Alexander’s plot development technology covered in his book Story-Flash. So, when I got the offer to read the first chapters of the Intangibleworld series before they were published, my interest was piqued. The subject of “intangibility” is actually something I have first-hand experience with as my company sold over a million copies of augmented reality books; plus, I really enjoy good sci-fi.
When I was reading it I realized this is a new wave of sci-fi genre for me. I asked myself, “What’s new here and why am I so fascinated?” And here are the answers I’ve come up with:
- There are 3 books written at the moment and all of them are action-packed. Each one pulls you into the next with more and more action. It actually should be called sci-fi action.
- The writing is incredibly cinematic, meaning reading is just like watching a movie.
- There is lots of intense suspense and action, with great dialog — effective and heartfelt. It doesn’t drag on and on. You can binge read these books.
- The characters work as a team, especially in the second book. That’s the same character dynamic that makes you love movies like Mission Impossible and The Fast and the Furious.
- This is a story for adults, so it has many explicit and realistic moments, just like in the Game of Thrones.
- When I was reading Harry Potter I remember being impressed with the invisibility cloak. Here everything is based on a similar premise.
- All 3 books maintain a uniformly high standard unlike other book series where the story gets boring after the first or second one.
- I’m sure it will be made into a cool movie or a TV show.
I’m looking forward to the fourth book. If they keep up their good work, the authors will be able to please readers again and again. “
