As if snatched from today’s headlines What Time Is It, by novelist Richard Thuss, delivers a contemporary, techno-political thriller that hits all the right notes, while supplying no small measure of entertainment. In a thriller marketplace dominated by generic and derivative fiction, Thuss breaks with convention in his new work, while giving us all a vision of what might be coming in the not so distant future. The world has become dependent on self-aware machines (SAMs). Everything mechanical talks and has its own opinion; including techno-geek Jack Farrell’s brilliant but malevolent wristwatch computer. When his research into a controversial smart-chip uncovers a deepening mystery, Jack finds himself confronted with a technological time bomb that threatens the future of the United States. Teaming with Fred, his Nobel winning genius landlord, and Julia, his cute and brilliant upstairs neighbor, Jack scrambles to derail the nefarious plans of North Korea to use SAMs to destroy the U.S.’s financial infrastructure. Headed for a final conflict, Jack is ill prepared for the most shocking revelation yet to come. Written with a political and technical astuteness that is uncanny, and told in the best traditions of the political, techno-thriller genre, What Time Is It delivers a contemporary and politically relevant statement about today’s technological pitfalls, while offering up an action-packed, nail-biter that will be sure to please thriller fans, or anyone who loves a great adventure well told.

What Time Is It is a combination science fiction/thriller novel with a lot of humor interspersed. It is the story of a man who accidentally comes across a plot to ruin the American banking system. It takes place in a not too future time when practically everything is computer run and controlled. Eventually the computer intelligence starts to overtake the human. It is also a story of good vs evil, and asks the question can ethical and moral decisions be programmed to be made by computer intelligence. It is not too far fetched to see this progression from the appliances, GPS's, computers, clocks, etc. that now speak to us to machines that actually take on human characteristics and hold debates and conversations with us. This novel is a quick read that is both enjoyable and engaging.Product details

WHAT TIME IS IT edition by Richard Carl Thuss Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
A quick read because it is artfully written by the brilliant mind of an upcoming author. The suspense and rapid movement of the story line is exhilarating. Though fiction today, these events could very well be in motion and just around the corner... take notice.
What Time is It. This is a very interesting book.
It reminds me of a book I read 2001 space odyssey.
I thoroughly enjoyed this fast paced, humorous and thought-provoking novel. I am absolutely recommending this novel to all readers who may wonder where the direction of today's technology could be heading, Oh My.
This is a great book. It is quick paced with very believable, well-formed characters. It also provides a very plausible look into the not so distant future. The style and skill of Richard Thuss are evident in the way he develops the plot and moves it forward in a way that keeps the reader fully engaged. I am recommending What Time Is It to all family and friends who love to read and appreciate a good story.
Couldn't put it down. Intriguing, fast-paced, thriller. Great characters and plot. Enjoyed it and can't wait to read the sequel.
"What time is it "is one of my favorite mystery books, the author (Richard Thuss) has crafted this adventure with realty and fiction that come together to make one exciting and engaging thriller. His knowledge and experience brings the book to life with detail that is incredible. Every page kept my attention and desire to find out what would happen next. This is a must read. Thanks to the author.
Engineer Richard Thuss used his professional knowledge to write a convincing futuristic thriller about a plot by artificial intelligence to destroy the U.S. banking system. The main character, a software engineer, unwittingly acquires a highly intelligent wristwatch and so becomes drawn into the scheme.
Some of the most interesting and engaging characters in this novel are non-human, and I was quite taken by Thuss' intelligent machines as well as a very likeable canine character. I look forward to this promising writer's next novel.
