Book Review Reviewed by Elizabeth M. for Readers Favorite
I have always loved sci-fi books and the detail in this book is phenomenal. A young man awakes in a “Big Brother” type future and must discover his world and himself. These circumstances really drew me in right from the first chapter. The dialog was excellent and the situations seemed driven by curiosity, which is a great way to pull you into an adventure. The detail of the forest and every part of the book helped me visualize the world and kept me submersed in the story.
The author captures the imagination of the reader creating an addicting story. There is some adult language but it seems appropriate with the dialogue. If you enjoy science fiction, then you should consider reading this book. |
