And honestly? It's better than some of King's novels." —Charly Cox, best-selling author of the Detective Alyssa Wyatt series " Equilibrium pits a wide cast of characters against one another in an epic battle of good versus evil. Reminiscent of Stephen King's, The Stand , Equilibrium delves into the theory that some folks are just born evil. This is a terrific read that'll have you on the edge of your seat as it hurtles toward a crescendo you won't soon forget." —Leslie Noyes, author of the Happy Valley series "Stephen King better watch out, because Darin Miller is well-equipped to steal his crown as the king of horror. Equilibrium maintains a swift, compelling pace despite its expansive scope, carefully intensifying as it builds toward its exhilarating conclusion. Darin Miller skillfully balances the narrative's complexity with an ever-present urgency, crafting a tale that is as intellectually stimulating as it is pulse-pounding. The pacing is thoughtfully structured, with each chapter propelling the reader forward toward a final, high-stakes confrontation that will leave them breathless." —Jessica Dickenson for Reader Views
