Sebastian Wilson is an aspiring actor whose latest “role” leads him into the lives of a wonderfully eclectic group of people. What I found especially interesting is that the male lead is a catalyst rather than the center of everyone else’s story. Without even realizing it, Wilson becomes exactly what several people need at pivotal moments in their lives, even as he struggles to accept himself for who he really is.
Science fiction is often at its most satisfying when it combines imaginative ideas with believable human stakes, and Andrea Goyan’s The Catalyst does exactly that. The novel balances scientific intrigue with questions about responsibility, identity, and the unintended consequences of discovery, creating a story that’s as engaging intellectually as it is entertaining.

Once, he walked in and I lost my breath. I just stared and had an entire encounter in my head. I think I was about 19 at the time. Going back a few years….lol Never did have a ‘real’ encounter though. Glad I never did because that would have taken all the mystery out of it.
Oh, most definitely. This used to happen to me regularly on the NYC subways…
