Summary: Movie Material
Comment: Although Anubis Rex is purportedly fictional, one wonders at the many coincidences in it between today's turmoil and the book's plot. Germ warfare, infectious diseases, Muslims, gene manipulation, white supremacy: subjects not unknown to us. Mears' novel opens in 1936 but it could be 2004. A melodic modern fable that is no fairytale. Mears' language is so descriptive, his fast-paced plot so moving, one has a hard time putting the book down. Yet his complex, poetic narrative, character-driven as well as multi-charactered, forces the reader to concentrate, to think, to visit the chapters more than once. A fresh concept in today's simplistic, formulaic offering of novels. To me, this exciting novel (a fable interwoven with historical fact and a taste of history repeating itself) would also make a fabulous film. Educational yet thoroughly entertaining. I truly hope to see a sequel soon!!
