      I recently finished Kira Peikoff’s latest novel Die Again Tomorrow and found it, like her prior efforts, to be a unique blend of science, medicine, and politics integrated into a thrilling plot. 

      The book begins with a murder in which the victim is revived from death through novel medical technologies (which actually are not too far off in the future) and then embarks on a quest to find her “killer”. The novel then takes the reader through a creative plot that weaves in such topics as immigration policy towards those who flee the Cuban dictatorship and FDA regulation.

      The theme, in my estimation, has to do with the general impotence of evil, especially when it is being pursued by the rational. It also concretizes the metastatic effects one evil action a person undertakes has on further actions.

      I agree with Amesh Adalja’s (#8726) opinion of Kira Peikoff’s Die Again Tomorrow.

      In all her books, this young author weaves interesting medical and scientific ideas (and some science fiction elements) into interesting plots. She’s not Ayn Rand (who is?) but I think most Objectivists would enjoy her books. I know I do!

      Yes, Kira’s books are awesome. And she’s young, so we can look forward to decades more of Kira Peikoff books unless she decides to change careers. I hope she becomes a super-wealthy cultural phenomenon, like J.K. Rawling.
