Mind MGMT - Volume One: The Manager
While reading through this I was very interested with the themes of dreams and mystery and mind control, it reminded me of the TV show LOST which I am, to put it lightly, very into. Then! After I was done I read the forward to the book, which was written by one of the co-creators of LOST. WHICH IS CRAZY I THOUGHT THE FLIGHT 815 THING WAS JUST ME BEING A FREAK ABOUT LOST. But I feel like definitely now, it is something else. Something cooler.
While reading this collection, I found myself becoming very into the story. But a lot was going on with the story and it wasn't as fast of a read at I thought it was going to be. It is not a light read at all, it was in fact very dense.
I read half the book one day before work and told my manager that I wasn't able to get through the entire book overnight. He then told me that there are three story lines going on at the same time. The first is what you are reading, the second is what you are seeing, and the third is the secret story written in the binding of the book.
I hadn't noticed the third story at all so I'm really glad I was able to finish the book another day. I also hadn't thought about how what I was reading and what I was seeing really were two different stories. My imagination was following so closely with the narrative that everything seemed to flow together really nicely, less needed to be said because of how descriptive the imagery was.
Can't wait to read the other volumes of this. A very cool story.
