Thanks for this review. I am not a fan of scifi fiction but if the author has not successfully connected the plots it would impact on one's reading experience. This book apears to be another twist to on man's quest to inhabit other planets but still not having learned from our mistakes in order to create a better future.

Great review. Inspire of being a sci fi and fantasy fan, I don't think I should give my time to this. Thanks for helping me out to make an informed decision

The lack of convergence of the plot lines and the hanging ending is a turn off for me, so I will pass. Great review.

The premise sounds interesting, as do each of the three plotlines, and I love science fiction, but it sounds like this has too many problems for me to fully enjoy it. For the reading to be missing information about the characters, the three plots to never come together, and for there to be editing issues, I think this book would need some reworking before I'd give it a good. Thank you for the helpful review.

As a lover of Sci-Fi and Magical movies, I enjoyed the fact that the story is much of a Scientific Fiction and it makes me remember a werewolf and the Aliens story.. So I might probably get the novel soon.. kudos to the author

Based on the review I will not enjoy reading this book. I enjoy reading the fantasy genre but this story doesn't interest me. I am not a fan of space sci-fi books. I will pass on reading this book.

It sounds like an exquisite science fiction, and promises a lot with three distinct plotlines. It would have been perfect if all of them intersected each other at some point and would have lead into a satisfying ending. However, I suppose the author must have left some details for the other books in the series, but I can't be sure without reading the book. Thanks for your critical analysis of the book, though.

Action-packed space opera seems like an enjoyable read. Since I like sci-fiction, I'm looking forward to reading this. Thank you for this wonderful review!

A sci-fi with three plot lines that are not properly connected seems too much for me. Thank you for the review!

I'm not a big fan of science fiction. and this one doesn't seem like it would impress me enough to try it. Thanks for the great review!
