Hollow Man- is a decent film. I perfer "The Invisible Man" and its remake over this. Kevin Bacon is good in this. Its more sci-fi than horror, but the horror in this is good. The sci-fi is good as well. It is slow for like the first hour. Than it starts getting good.

The plot: After years of experimentation, brilliant but arrogant scientist Sebastian Caine has discovered a way to make matter invisible. Determined to achieve the ultimate breakthrough, Caine pushes his team to move to the next phase - using himself as the subject. The test is a success, but when the process can't be reversed, Caine seems doomed to a future without flesh.

Its okay.

I do love Ethan and Merit and pretty much most of the main characters in this series. I just struggle to get into the books initially. This took me at least 150+ pages before I got to a point where I'd been pulled in completely and didn't want to put it down.

I wasn't so keen on the thing that came between the couple in this. I get Ethan's wanting to protect those he loves but Merit loves you more than pretty much anything, so she can deal with your past. But they worked through their crap and became a stronger couple in the end with a very interesting future in the works.

I'm going to read the remaining books in the series when I get them.

As has been said by numerous other reviewers I am sure, the world building in this book is exquisite! I don't think I've seen the multiple world's idea done quite as well as I have here. It's certainly the most thought out and crafted, and would be hard to beat.

Both the main characters were will defined and their relationship is one I could definitely believe.

The one draw back is the plot reliance on the mcguffin. By the end it definitely had a feel of the Ring from Lord of the Rings, and ultimately I felt it was this that held the book back from being really great.

I look forward to continuing in this world with this charactera in the future.
