I think its funny that you said, some of the people dont contributed as they are supposed to. Its just like real life, at any job. This book sounds amazing. I love post-apocalyptic reads. Thanks for the review.

From your review, it seems From Earth to Terra is a survivalist novel with the science fiction angle woven into it which makes for a good read. However, this genre does not appeal to me. The fact there are many errors in the book is definitely a put-off. Thanks for the review!

Sounds like an interesting book to read for relaxation. From the review it appears to be quite realistic, because very often, when we leave one place for another to get away from "problems", we just end up taking the same issues with us. Pity about the errors. I will try to read it, but because I am not normally too big a fan of science fiction, I might put it down if poor editing becomes a distraction.

Thank you for the review, read a few pages in the prologue and already found some wrong spelling, although I prefer science fiction movies than books but the few pages I read want me to not stop reading, can not wait to finish it.

I read the all enthralling prologue and your great review has certainly piqued my interest in reading this science fiction that captures the essence of nature conservation necessary for human beings to continue advancing and flourish in the Noah's Ark that we have and know. The alternative is preparing for an inevitable escape to unknown inter-galactic frontiers in search of new beginnings - John Makathimo

Descriptive, honest and balanced review. Thank you for helping to understand the whole picture given via the fiction. Though the theme is not a new one for sci-fi, I would like to give this a try. Congratulations on being BOTD

I've read and watched too many similar stories about earth being inhabitable, and it has become boring to me.

From Earth to Terra by Beverly Jenness is a science fiction thriller the setting of this novel is in the future two hundred years from now. Earth has become uninhabitable and its habitats have found another planet, Terra.

The two main characters of this novel Amanda and Paul take the departure from planet Earth along with a group called, The life Trust Guild. But life doesn't seem to be quite easy on the planet Terra they have some problems there.

From Earth to Terra has all sorts of ingredients to make this novel a thriller, I enjoyed reading this novel.

This book sounds very interesting and gives me a slight Avatar vibe. I agree that the author needed another round of editing to polish the story. I think that having someone read it such as yourself can give the author an opportunity to fix these issues in future stories. I loved the beautiful cover art and the fantastical creatures on Terra.

A book constructed with a perfect balance of past and future. The characters seem well developed, but their environment would have needed to be more descriptive.

This sounds like an interesting and exciting read, even with the editing errors. Those are easy enough to overlook if the story itself can keep me engrossed.

The idea of space travel to another planet, where we get a chance to start over, is appealing. I would prefer that we fix the planet we're already on, but too many groups of people put profit first.

Adding the twist of have some people not pulling their weight makes the story pretty life-like. Unfortunately, that always seems to be a problem when working with a large group of people.

I can't wait to find out how life on Terra turns out.

I enjoyed your review. Thank you. 💕
