Hook:
Wall-E meets Starship Troopers, not exactly!
Plot Summary
Humans seeking a new home to live on, run against a terraformed earth like planet being protected by Dr. Kern and her satellite, a thousands of year old relic of the mighty, multiplanetary human empire.
The spiders on the planet have evolved into much more by Dr. Kern's nano-virus experiment originally intended for monkeys.
Praise:
Very original tale out of cliché Sci-Fi tropes like destroyed planet and giant spiders. Loved the way author managed to this.
Strong character development for certain characters.
Amazing twist, makes me anticipate the next book.
Critique:
Motivation for certain characters is not justified.
Destruction of the human empire is quite not believable and could have been explored and justified a bit more.
Story emphasizes the view point of a certain character too much the pay off is not there or the character is really dull.
Recommendation:
Highly recommended!
Your Rating:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This book is amazing. Story took a different turn than the previous ones, different but not unfamiliar. All and all very enjoyable setting, engaging story, satisfying journey.
This book is amazing. Jeff Edwards writes so well that you almost “see” events happening in front of your eyes. Good mix of technical details and action. Very well placed book.
