Reviews and Commentary for The First Immortal

Synopsis:
In his astonishing first novel, "The Truth Machine", James Halperin
envisioned a future world radically changed by the invention of a totally
foolproof lie detector. Now he once again examines the extraordinary
benefits--and moral implications--of future scientific breakthroughs with
the story of a man, cryonically frozen after his death, who is restore to
life 83 years later in the world of wonders that is the year 2071.

The publisher, Ballantine , 01/08/98:
First Look bookseller comments (they're still coming in)
Dianne Schulte Concord NC Manager -- Having greatly enjoyed Halperin's
vision in The Truth Machine, I wasted no time to settle down with his newest
work of art. Shivers go up my spine when I think of the scientific
breakthroughs glimpsed in The First Immortal. I AM AMAZED. "
