Suddenly everyone in the world loses consciousness for two minutes. Planes fall from the sky, there are millions of car crashes, millions die. And when everyone comes round they have had a glimpse of their life in the future.
When it awakes the world must live with the knowledge of what is to come.
Some saw themselves in new relationships, some saw exciting new technologies, some saw the stuff of nightmares. Some, young and old alike, saw nothing at all ...
A desperate search to find out what has happened begins. Does the mosaic of visions offer a clue?

Customer Reviews
Goof book
Really good book kept me hooked, although I did want to see more of the tv series too
Flash Forward
A very enjoyable book which is worlds away from the recent cancelled adaptation/flop that was on Channel 5 (ABC in the US).
I have always been a science fiction fan and have often looked into the science fact behind the theories and technologies features in them, (not generally bedtime reading). This novel does the reader a great credit by breaking down some very complex scientific theories into very easy to understand terms.
It was a little slow to begin with, but once it began to pick up pace, this novel had me gripped the rest of the way through. Whether your a sci-fi fan or not, I would definitely recommend this book to all readers - Get the sample today and get hooked!!
Tense, thrilling, addictive reading
Admittedly I only bought this ebook because I enjoyed the TV show, and felt disappointed when the series abruptly ended.
When I started the novel, I couldn't put it down. It holds a few minor details is similarity with the TV series, but the book is worlds apart from it's televised counterpart.
The book briefly details scientific theories, particularly quantum physics, but explains them brilliantly.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone with even a fleeting interest in quantum physics and/or science fiction.
