Default Lights Out

I really like the story in "Lights Out", though the characters might be considered
two-dimensional in a four-d universe. And the chase sequence near the end
went by too fast. I think that must have been his first book.

From a quick look, I see several books titled "Lights Out". Can you provide more information about the author, year of publication, etc? Is "Lights Out" the whole title?

Default Maybe this book

Hi,

A quick google search for 'lights out book' revealed -

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/22/bo...ppel.html?_r=0

Lights out by Ted Koppel

I did not read it but the link describes a scenario where terrorists take away the national power grid.

Lets hope the good guys are more powerful than the bad guys.

Regards,
Matt
