The Third Twin by Ken Follett. Fawcett Crest, 467 pages.
This book has some science in it, so I suppose it could be called science fiction, but it is all current science. It was published in 1996, so I should say it is current science now, and was cutting edge then.
I enjoyed the book - but I wouldn't call it great literature. It's a beach book, or an airplane book. It moves along well and keeps you entertained. I liked the central theme of "nature vs. nurture". In many ways a satisfying book.
I have read at least one other Ken Follett book, "The Pillars of the Earth" but I don't believe I've reviewed it here.
I think "Pillars" has more heft to it, and not just because it is long.
I recommend "Pillars" for a vacation book - where you have a bit more time to invest, and "Twin" for an airplane ride.
