The following is my brief review of Gen LaGreca's novel Noble Vision. The story is a romance set against a background of Big Government America and State controlled medicine.

Noble Vision by Gen LaGreca
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Noble Vision is a terrific read and a poignant social commentary. The romanticism is a refreshing approach compared to gloomy distopianism that has become so popular. While the best and worst of the major players are exaggerated a bit, the characters are still believable and their motives are compelling. Clearly the author was influenced by Ayn Rand (or maybe it's just me)as parallels to The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged were seemingly abundant. I found this modern story with contemporary dialogue to be a more enjoyable read than the classics. Gen really surprised me with one major plot twist that I never saw coming. At a few points there were events that seemed a little to convenient but what the heck, it's fiction and those bits helped drive a fast paced plot. I found it hard to believe that this was the authors first novel. Well done and congratulations to Gen LaGreca!
