Review by Mladypendora 3½ Stars out of 4
Drafted by one of mystery writing's most ingenious craftsmen, PARADIGM RED is a verbal blueprint for the intricate chambers of the heart and mind.
It draws the reader to the convergence of the nadir of nuclear fact and the zenith of the author's explosive imagination.
In the dead of night, Harold King conceives a nuclear excursion.
One tolled to the deafening roar of a klaxon under ambient red alert.
Paradigm red ~ devised by one common man of uncommon mind who has reached the flashpoint of his personal hell.
It is up to Harold King to contain the destructive forces he has unleashed ~ or take everyone with him.
The suspense is alarming. And, ladies and gentlemen, we will be experiencing
technical difficulties as we enter an era when "advanced technology has
gathered its own momentum and is about to master the master." Prepare
to embark on a journey to the point of no return. This compelling author's
startling vision of what lies just beyond one man's reach ~ the light at
the end of the tunnel ~ is the first light of day or the last thing his
readers will ever see.
In PARADIGM RED, published in 1974, Harold King writes, "[there is] the
projected range of an estimated 1,000 nuclear power reactors by the year
2000." His prediction amounts to an operative half~truth.
Approximately 473 reactors worldwide command the attention of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA.
473.
This novel exposes only one reason why.
PARADIGM RED was produced as the Paramount~CBS movie "Red Alert."
Red Alert is also available in novel form, or VHS videotape.
