Relation Toward Books The Mandel Files, Volume 1: Mindstar Rising & A Quantum Murder (Greg Mandel #1-2)
CONTAINS TWO COMPLETE NOVELS!For the first time in a single volume, Peter F. Hamilton’s acclaimed novels—Mindstar Rising and A Quantum Murder—set in a near-future so real it seems ripped from tomorrow’s headlines
In Mindstar Rising, Greg Mandel, gifted—or cursed—with biotechnology that makes him a living lie detector, is hired to investigate corporate espionage by Event Horizon, a powerful company about to introduce a technology that will solve the energy problems of a world decimated by global warming.
Set two years later, A Quantum Murder once again teams Mandel with Event Horizon and its beautiful young owner, Julia Evans, in a locked-room mystery that combines the ingenuity of an Agatha Christie novel with cutting-edge speculative brilliance.
Read together, these novels take on fresh depth and complexity, underscoring the magnitude of Peter F. Hamilton’s creative talent.

These books were good. I am not sure I will read them again, but then again, I am not sure that was the intention of them. They were suspenseful mysteries with plenty of action and characters. I appreciated the starkly different plots between the books while keeping the same characters. I would say these are more suspense/mystery and less sci-fi, but I liked that.Told you I was gonna read more Peter Franklin.
Two books in one.The first one is a bit bumpy read, a rough ride, although not bad overall, not on the level I am used from Peter F. Hamilton. So 2/5But, the second book is way better, with a compelling story line, thought nothing really over the top, but enough to get a 4/5Overall I give a 4/5, especially because for the second book

At first I wasn't sure about this but then I got caught up in the characters and the action. In the end, I couldn't put it down!
Finished the 2nd novel of the omnibus, "A Quantum Murder". Greg Mandel is a pretty fun detective to follow, and this time around he gets into a bit more action-packed trouble, with most of the main players from the first novel returning. Again, this is one of Hamilton's early works, and the "sci-fi" is kept to a minimum, though fantastic in nature. This is a pretty cool sci-fi detective series set in the not too distant future, and unlike Hamilton's more recent epic space-opera work it is very
Early hamitonGood read, see where Hamilton had early skills in developing a future world, with full characters and a twisting plot keeping you interested til the end
the book started off slow and confusing so i put it down. i picked it back up when i had nothing else to read and glad i did. shortly in, the book did pick up and got really good.
