[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "The Four Worlds - The Truth" by Skyler Ramirez.]
It is the post-diaspora era, and humans live on several planets in Space. Forty-seven planets are colonies and are controlled by the Council. The Council engineered different mutations to create people its members could use to rule effectively. These include: Speakers who are the Council's mouthpiece and administrators; readers who can read people's thoughts to the Council's benefit; enacters who enact the Council's authority without questions; and blenders who are their spies. Additionally, the Council deleted and rewrote the history of existence, prohibited religion, and took control of the media.
However, some rebellious people oppose the Council's dictatorship and lies. Jinny Ambrosa, a super-enacter, is among the rebels. She manages to read one of the speakers and realizes a secret under the plan to infiltrate the uncolonized planets, including Earth. She and her team have to deliver the warning to the Four Worlds and alert other planets that all they have been told about the Council is a lie. Will they manage?
The Four Worlds - The Truth by Skyler Ramirez displays the mesmerizing creativity of the author. I have read many sci-fi books, and often I could only manage to read them halfway before I got bored because of how complicated their plots were. However, in The Four Worlds - The Truth, mysteries and suspense keep you yearning for more. Another reason to like this book is that it has a map of the book's setting. I found it easy to follow the story because I could always refer to the map and clearly understand which planet certain characters were on or were moving to. I couldn't help but dissolve and live in the author's imaginative universe.
Furthermore, the book comprises relatable themes such as romance, loss, politics, and freedom. The colonization and dictatorship in the book happen in our society today, so it becomes easy to digest the book's contents. The sacrifices made by some of the characters in the struggle to free themselves from the chains of bad governance are inspirational.
My only struggle was keeping track of the supporting characters in the book. They were too many, and it would be nice if the number were moderated. Besides that, there was nothing I disliked in the book. Also, I have to applaud the author for the excellent editing. It's rare to find lengthy books like this without a single objective error. Because the book has many positives, I rate it 5 out of 5 stars. I didn't find the one negative issue I mentioned valid enough to make me underrate the book. The book is suitable for sci-fi and crime-mystery lovers.
