'...a very confident, quietly authoritative book...Theory, application and practical value intertwine into a consistent whole...which tells me: this guy knows his stuff. He has been there. He knows what is involved...and what questions should be asked. Anyone involved with post acquisition integration will gain hugely from reading this book.' - John W.

&ldquo;Olivia is a compelling, flawed character [and] the multiple apocalypses she creates feel all too plausible, as does the pain of her dilemma . . . Highly recommended for readers of dystopian stories, time-travel scenarios, and endings that cause them to rethink the entire book.&rdquo; &mdash;Library Journal, starred&#160;review&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;The horrifying but mundane end(s) of the world are rendered with powerful bleakness&mdash;making moments of human tenderness and kindness shine all the brighter.&rdquo; &mdash;Kirkus Reviews&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;[A]&#160;realistic and terrifying portrait of society&rsquo;s swift unraveling in the face of disaster . . . This crackling road trip through the apocalypse offers thrills all the way to its explosive, satisfying finale.&rdquo; &mdash;Publishers Weekly&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Skillingstead (Harbinger, 2009) deftly balances frenetic pacing and characters&rsquo; philosophical debates on parallel futures, the butterfly effect, and probability choices in a dramatic and suspenseful story supported by an intelligent, witty, and reluctant hero. His exploration of themes related to the manipulation of time will attract fans of Philip K. Dick, and the novel will also appeal to readers who enjoyed Michael Crichton&rsquo;s sf thrillers and viewers of Amazon&rsquo;s The Man in theHigh Castle.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Booklist&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;The Chaos Function just flat-out knocked me back in my chair. The very best kind of action-thriller meets hard sci-fi. A mind-bending jolt of high concept ideas injected straight to your frontal cortex. One of the best books I&rsquo;ve ever read.&rdquo; &mdash;Ted Kosmatka, author of The Flicker Men&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;Relentless, terrifying, and affecting, this book left me feeling like I&rsquo;d been strapped to the front of the car like Mad Max in&#160;Fury Road&mdash;not realizing that it was taking me to an emotional ending that would leave me gutted. I&rsquo;ve been a huge fan of Skillingstead&rsquo;s work for years, but in&#160;The Chaos Function&#160;he&rsquo;s outdone himself!&rdquo; &mdash;Daryl&#160;Gregory, award-winning author of&#160;Spoonbenders&nbsp; &#160;&nbsp; &ldquo;Deftly marrying genres, Jack Skillingstead has given us a science fiction thriller for the ages. Journalist Olivia Nikitas discovers an centuries-old conspiracy with the means to alter the very fabric of time. Dodging from war-ravaged Syria across a suddenly-apocalyptic United States, she must fight to survive in a changeable world where she alone knows what&rsquo;s real. With a plot as mind-bending as pharmaceutical-quality Phillip K. Dick,&#160;The Chaos Function&#160;is an astonishment from page one to its explosive climax.&rdquo; &mdash;James Patrick Kelly, winner of the Hugo, Nebula, and Locus awards&nbsp; &#160;&nbsp; &ldquo;A compelling near-future thriller of hard choices and unintended consequences. This is science fiction that feels all too real. Highly recommended.&rdquo; &mdash;Ramez Naam, award-winning author of the Nexus trilogy
