Review: The mind and memories are fascinating as scientists and researchers are just now beginning to untangle these complex ideas and processes. Recursion is a fascinating story of the mind intermixing and even changing reality.

At first, I was a little worried about the direction this fictional story would take, but was more than pleasantly surprised. The mix of actual scientific breakthroughs and sci-fi was gripping and evocative. Definitely one of the best sci-fi books I have read in a while.
