In 30th Century: Escape (General Audience Edition) by Mark Kingston Levin, humanity's split into two groups: genetically enhanced Syndos and unaltered Naturals, has led to a dystopian future where Naturals are oppressed. Captain Jennifer Hero, who grew up in Montreal, leads a mission to travel back in time to prevent this societal divide and save humanity from extinction. The team, including her second-in-command, Kylie Brown, faces technical difficulties, encounters with historical figures, and the constant threat of capture by the Syndos. Their mission takes them to Pacifica Anthozoa, Mururoa, to contain a deadly virus created by the Syndos-run Australian government. As they navigate these challenges, the personal stories and motivations of the team members come to light, adding depth to the narrative. The book's engaging plot and Jennifer's determination to live life on her terms, despite the mission's perils, keep readers captivated as they hope for the success of the mission to alter the course of history.

"30th Century: Escape (General Audience Edition)" by Mark Kingston Levin is an engaging novel featuring strong female characters, particularly the protagonist, Jennifer Hero, who fights for her husband's rights after his murder by the Syndos. Jennifer's resourcefulness and leadership are evident as she navigates time travel, technical challenges, and personal trials with her team. The vivid descriptions and captivating plot kept me enthralled, and the well-edited narrative ensures a seamless reading experience. The book's realistic dialogue and Jennifer's relatable moments of doubt and determination make the story even more compelling. With its focus on science fiction, time travel, and rich character development, this book is a must-read.

There wasn't much that I disliked about the book; there were no spelling or grammatical errors, which made my read a whole lot more enjoyable and seamless. The editing was also exceptionally done. 

I would rate this book a 5 out of 5. The creative aspect of the book made it very exciting to read, and being a woman myself, I was especially interested in it since the book is full of female leaders.

I would recommend this book to adult sci-fi lovers, mostly feminists. I don't think it would be suitable for young readers because of the very descriptive and diverse profanity and sexual content it has, which, by the way, I thought wasn't necessary to that extent because the book's original story and building were too good to be ruined by that much sexual content that adds no value to its core, especially that extent and diversity.
