The BookViral Review:
Originality and authenticity always make for great books and Janowsky continues to deliver on both counts with the release of her fourth book in The Persistence of Memory series.
A superb blend of techno-thriller and superhero fantasy that whips along at a cracking pace W.I.S.E. Men is the origin story her fans have been waiting for and it’s a corker!
There are more and more books about superheroes being released but what often separates the good from the bad is an author’s ability to get into the minds of their characters and this is something Janowsky is particularly good at.
Fielding a fun, intelligent and immediately engaging plot she revels in weaving converging plot lines together across multiple timelines whilst again demonstrating a meticulous eye for detail.
The central characters in W.I.S.E. Men are U.S. Army Lieutenant Kevin Rye, his longtime friend, Rob Fisher, U.S. Army Ranger Graham Beech and Steven Amato with mythological Daniel Hecht yet to make his travel through time. As you would expect from Janowsky they are all strong and vividly described but it’s her exploration of their differing relationships that makes W.I.S.E. Men such a good read. She takes time to explore their sexuality, their fears and their vulnerabilities and there are few authors in the genre who do this so well.
A wholly absorbing and highly enjoyable read W.I.S.E. Men proves another win for Janowsky and is recommended without reservation!
A dark and compulsive immersion that finds Harris confidently orchestrating an atmosphere of danger and dread for a descent into an underworld inhabited by the most ruthless of London gangsters he’s a meticulous author of a type that is becoming increasingly rare.
Cleverly plotted, beautifully characterized, dark and utterly compelling it’s clear from the start that Wojciechowski knows how to weave an intriguing narrative and she is quick to hit her stride to give us a haunting and idiosyncratic read with a savvy emotional payoff about taking chances and moving forward.

We are constantly and enduringly fascinated with fictional accounts of parallel existence, alternative realities and genetic engineering. Films such as ‘The Fountain’ present immortality as attainable, whilst books such as ‘The Book Thief’ (Markus Zusak) explore the nature of death, in this case by death himself acting as narrator.
When Huffpost Editor-in-chief Jimmy Leach announced the closure of its blogging platform he said that “publishing thousands of blogs has been a distraction from the delivery of impactful, targeted investigations, explainers, breaking news and lifestyle and entertainment journalism.”
Heroes come and go. That’s certainly true of the fictional variety where very few linger in the mind beyond the last page of a novel. So what makes the perfect fictional hero?
