    This is one of those rare books/movies that come along in my life when I can never really tell what is going on the entire time I'm reading it, and then you get to the end, and all I can think is: NOOOOOOOOO! I never found out ANYTHING! It left me thinking and I'm anxious to read it again soon because I think there will be a lot of things I'll pick up on the second time around that I didn't catch the first time.

    Yes it is a rare book and I love that you can pick out a chapter at ramdom and be totaly involved in it . The one that comes to mind is the main character's grandfather---(GOING BACK) pg.65---I find this very touching with a bit of sanity. You may pick out another chapter and its like OMG --STOP! STOP! and its only a short chapter and has you feeling his crazyness. I have a special fondness forthe old man with the alien implants.(similar scars) p21 Don't you want to have alien implants?

    the chapter involving the grandfather's death was one of my favorites also.  the author's excellent handling of the family politics involved increased my personal connection with the main character.  ....as far as the ending is concerned i choose to be optimistic and assume he survives.

    I believe the protagonist survives, as well. I've mentioned a sequel Kristopher, eventually. There is so much more he can tell, so many levels to which his concept can be taken. SPOILER: the protagonist comes into control of his powers at the end, whereas he was out of control and learning discipline in the rest of the novel. So I say sequel (someday) to see what effect this super-powered sentinel of justice can have on the corrupt facets of the populace...

    i look forward to a sequel with the protagonist further exploring the implications of his powers and dealing with others who have already transitioned. the tension and interest this section of 'click' created left me wanting another 100 pages. with the character and concept already developed a sequel would be can't put it down, start to finish.

  7. Thanks for all the kind words... but sequel? Wouldn't that sort of retroactively determine the resolution/conclusion of Click? I'm not sure I'm interested in ever doing that. That said, there are definitely some concepts in Click I could see revisiting someday... perhaps a sequel that isn't a sequel?
