My Review
Dolos is indeed a thrilling tale of cryptocurrency that quickly sweeps the reader along and never really lets us go.
Our main character is blessed with the ability to remember everything, and while this makes him a bit of a ‘cold fish’, beneath it all lies an intriguing individual. His life changes very abruptly as he starts to unravel the secrets of his parents’ lives.
Dolos is a fabulous tale that switches between the past and current events. Thanks to the author’s skills in explaining everything, I feel as though I ‘almost’ understand cryptocurrency now.
This feels like a cross between a treasure hunt (like National Treasure) and an action-adventure movie. It’s engrossing reading, and once I got into the story, I didn’t want to put it down.
A thrilling tale, very current, and readers, I’m sure, will devour it, as I did.
Meet the author
I didn’t start as a storyteller.
For over a decade I navigated the world of high finance in London, immersed in balance sheets, projections, and market trends.
Yet, during a particular research project I stumbled on a powerful realisation: the ideas I had always regarded as fictions of the future are becoming very real.
We are living in that time right now.
I felt compelled to write where others won’t dare to go, using modern-day truths to paint a thrilling, if sometimes chilling, portrait of our rapidly evolving world.
When I wrote Dolos, I sought to answer two questions:
1. How could someone create a cryptocurrency worth over a trillion dollars while remaining invisible to governments, media, and federal agencies?
2. Is this person powerful enough to crash the global financial system, unravel modern civilisation, and set humanity back to the 18th century?
I found my answers. They were quite unsettling.
