Customer Reviews

A relaxing read with twists and turns

Reviewed by Stephanie Rollins for Reader Views (8/07) "Act Normal," by William Manchee, starts out with: "....there was nothing normal in my life anymore, not since my son Peter had been abducted by aliens from a planet called Tarizon." Normally, I would have put the book down then; however, the reviews were good, so I read on. I am glad that I did so. Stan is a lawyer who does not specialize. He has a partner, Paula. Paula's husband, Bart, begins to work with Paula after his job with the district attorney ends. Stan and Paula end up trying an embezzlement case and two murder cases. Stan has to work with the CIA in order to keep his son Peter alive on Tarizon. The Tarizonian leaders give Stan an alien partner. She is tall, blonde, and thin. I picture Heidi Klum. There is definitely sexual tension between the two of them. Is sex inevitable? Is her anatomy the same as a human? You have to read the book to discover that for yourself. Though the Tarizonians are involved in this plot, this is not a science-fiction novel. This is a courtroom drama that will keep you on the edge of your seat. It is much more relaxing to read than a John Grisham novel, but it is just as exciting. Anyone who loves a great battle between lawyers will love this story. Manchee has other novels that I am excited to start reading, such as "Yes, We're Open." "Act Normal" is a book of twists and turns that is a relaxing read. I recommend it.
