Mr. Ng has written a very exceptional book on what happens when mankind starts producing drugs for their own power and gain. This is a fast-paced book, which gives readers an idea of what could happen.

David Onslow is a success in his field where he is experimenting with drugs that could change the world. Unbeknownst to him, another person has invaded his body and is trying to take control of it. He knows that his must act before this “thing” takes over his body and his life ends. What he doesn’t know is that this “thing” has many other people under their control.

While Onslow is concerned about meeting the research criteria so his company can go ahead with the experiments, his friends and fellow researchers are dying without anyone knowing why.

“Far From Beyond” by Rick Ng is a great book about greed, power and control. As readers read this book they might think that this could happen in our world. It may be happening today. Mr. Ng, a biotech, has provided a great amount of verbiage from the technical field, but he does so in a way that readers can understand. His knowledge in the field has given readers a “what if” moment.
