All it took was the first couple of sentences in this review to know I’m not at all interested! Well written review, though!

This is a fast-paced science fiction thriller on space exploration, aliens, first contact, and desperation for survival. It is free on Kindle Unlimited and has an interesting OnlineBookClub review that I enjoyed. I rated the book 4 out of 4 stars. Congrats @wdcounty on the BOTD.

I am currently reading the same genre so I wouldn't pick this book now. Nice review though.

The adventure of the book is what is really captivating and interesting, like meeting new worlds and things, its just like leaving your country and going to another and discovering a meal that have never seen in your country and that is really interesting. I love this book it is awesome

This is not usually the type of book I would choose to read but the themes you describe sound interesting. The plot is intriguing and your review has me considering it as something I would enjoy. Treating others with kindness even if they are different is a theme everyone can benefit from hearing. Great job on writing such a strong review.

I love your review and the story is fascinating. I like the theme portrayed here and the fact that the characters are well developed is a plus. I'm looking forward to reading this after my review.
We will have our ups and downs, regardless of who we are. When we fall, we peel ourselves off the asphalt and get back up. If we need to cry, then we cry. And when we’re ready, we get back up and move forward again.

A science-fiction story where a crew travels to a strange planet to determine if there is life on the planet and if it is intelligent. An interesting option for those who like this genre

This book isn't my genre. I'm not into space and I found the opening to be slow for my liking.

The sample definitely spurred interest, as there seems to be a renaissance of spirituality which is flying the face of exponentially advancing technology in our time. This being woven with organic narration in a sci-fi novel I like.

Good review. I like the fact that the author gave us both point of views. I’m interested in this mushroom and how it’s alive. So why does it turn into sand? I can’t wait to find out.

I am a science fiction fan, and the way this review is written really makes me want to go buy the book. And the fact that the book not only shows the point of view of humans is interesting.
