Jeff Nesbit's Oil (Guideposts Books, 2012) is an edge of your seat thriller that makes you think. Nesbit manages to combine complexity with tight, compact storytelling that keeps you turning the pages. Oil also raises some fascinating questions about the possible uses and abuses of social media in a volatile world. If you enjoy political thrillers, Oil is a must read.
I received a complimentary copy of Oil to facilitate my review. No other compensation was received. For full disclosure, see the sidebar.

My husband would like this book. He likes this sort of political thriller.
I think it's sad for the real world that a mere book could provide a extremely probable prediction of the dangers of staying on fossil fuels mixes with the unreasonable politics of men.
this one def sounds pretty cool...will put this one on my list..
Sounds like a great read, Mama Zen.
...and if you liked "Oil", be sure to read the sequel, "Vinegar."
Thanks, I'm here all week.
Now, *this* book sounds like fun! Will have to add it to my list, placing it behind Lone Survivor and The Wind Through The Keyhole.
The Muslim world has to change and learn cooperation.
Hopefully the internet will open their minds.
