Customer Reviews

This book has high merit both as fiction and Y2K fact!

It is apparent that Mr. Stauffer has studied his subject very well. This fast-paced, well written book is must reading for anyone who would like Y2k explained. Although this is presented as fiction don't be surprised if this book doesn't become a rare glimpse into the future.

As good as Clancey without the "techno-talk"!

I loved it! When the clock strikes midnight on 12/31/99 in Doubting Thomas I felt I was cresting on a roller coaster and could hardly hold on for the ride. I couldn't put it down. Stauffer weaves a story as well as Tom Clancey without having to go into what I would call excessive "techno-talk". The use of the Y2K dynamic as a premise for what happens is thrilling and eye opening. While entertaining it is also sobering. It causes one to consider just how trusting and reliant we are on people and systems. Stauffer raises important questions regarding this in a thrilling, hair raising tale. I highly recommend Doubting Thomas (Crisis 2000). Read it before it's too late!

Very captivating with many well developed characters

This maybe Mr. Stauffer's first novel, but it is well done. Doubting Thomas (Crisis 2000)) makes for an entertaining read. His hitman, Harold Kronk, for instance, is a jewel. Although I am not a big believer in any Y2K catastrophe, still, this novel is well worth the price. Judging from this book, Mr. Stauffer has a lot to offer. I hope he keeps writing.
