Summary: Move over, Messrs. Cussler and Clancy...you've got company.
Review: Bob Wernli's technological accuracy is no surprise to those of us in the underwater and robotic technology industries. His reputation and proficiency as an engineer, diver, and expert in the field is well known throughout the world. In Second Sunrise he has skillfully interjected this extensive knowledge into and throughout an all-consuming and simply brilliant piece of great storytelling. His fast-paced but precise dialogues, technological accuracy, and imaginative but credible storyline combine to present the reader with a continuous and captivating assortment of clever surprises at every turn. The only downside to Mr. Wernli's remarkable first novel is when you finish the last page... and immediately begin to wonder how long g you'll have to wait for his next treasure. Move over, Messrs. Cussler and Clancy...you've got company.

Summary: Chad Donegan could kick Jack Ryan¿s butt any day!
Review: Robert Wernli's first novel is a combination of The Abyss, Chariots of Fire, and Die Hard. He has the incredible ability of weaving multiple plots and storylines together into a magnificent web of action, suspense, and surprise. His technical, social, and psychological knowledge far exceeds that of other authors in this genre. From the sumo-wrestling matches to underwater chases, Robert Wernli has me hooked!

Summary: The story of a Japanese billionaire's pursuit of revenge
Review: Robert Wernli's techno-thriller novel, Second Sunrise, was awarded the 11th Annual Writer's Digest International Self-Published Book Award prize for genre fiction. Second Sunrise is the gripping story of a Japanese billionaire's pursuit of revenge hallmarked by a willingness to sacrifice even those closest to him in order to bring down financial and physical devastation on the country that he feels stole his life. It is also the story of Chad Donegan, an American Olympic athlete and an ocean explorer. Men driven to perfection and who will accept no less than victory. This deftly written and thoroughly engaging international novel ranges from sumo matches in Japan, to earthquakes in California, to robotic vehicles and manned submersibles, to a hidden terror in the depths of the Pacific Ocean. Deep below the ocean, where technologically advanced systems collide in a final "gambit of death", Second Sunrise escalates to a cataclysmic finale below the coastal waters of the western United States. Also available in hardcover (1414006101, $24.00) and in an ebook format (141400611X, $4.95) Second Sunrise is superbly crafted, thoroughly entertaining, and highly recommended.

Summary: Exceptional in every way
Review: Watch out Steven King!! This new writer has what it takes to capture and hold one's attention from the beginning. Filled with action, layman level technical talk, great cast of characters and intrigue found only in the products of great writers. Lots and lots of twists and surprises. Never a dull moment. Definitely a techno-thriller well worth reading. Looking forward to his next offering.
