I have not read this book given the cover and genre. I'm not big on science fiction, though I do occasionally read it. Now going through all these reviews to see if it is worth it!

I gave the book three out of four stars. Overall, I thought it was very well written and would appeal to people who like science fiction. I think that the author does a good job of tackling social issues such as bullying and oppression. I'd like to believe that people will be more enlightened in the future, but, let's face it, humans kind of suck. I can't remember if the book is categorized as just science fiction or if it's categorized as young adult, but the violence and some of the subject matter is definitely not a good fit for younger teens.

This book sounds so intense! It has a lot of positive reviews. I love a good nail biting book to keep them on the edge of my seat. I’ll have to add this one to my to read list!

I love science fiction and this book sounds like it has a rich story line with awesome characters. A lot of people are saying there is violence but it isn't graphic. While others are saying that it might not be appropriate for teenage readers. I'm wondering how much violence is actually in the book? I'm more inclined to read it, if it doesn't have unnecessary violence.

I have not fully read the book. I have only read an Amazon free sample and the start is truly engaging and promising of what the whole narrative delivers. I cannot say much but the scientific discoveries, inventions, intentions and consequences would make up for a captivating read. I will grab this book and read the rest of the story.

Based on how I found the free the Amazon Sample, I have some confidence to recommend the book to others for a try.

Project Tau is a serious psychological cliff-hanger. I will like to rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. I like this book because the progression of this book was well-structured. The character advancement was good. Kalin Taylor joined the College of Arts and Science at Sanderson. Kalin was given a big task when he wanted to join a fraternity at college. This story is captivating. He was told to go and take a photo in Project Tau lap and bring the photo. There he was grabbed. The author is able to pass the information vividly. This book will be enjoyed by everyone who likes reading science fiction thriller.

I was pleasantly surprised when I gripped right from the word go. I'm definitely going to read it in full as soon as possible. Also the themes are so relevant to our times and how artificial intelligence in excess can be harmful.

This is an interesting book to read. The author was able to pass an intriguing message to the reader. The character development was unique. Taylor, was on scholarship to a college to study medicine. He wanted to join a fraternity.
The fraternity group gave him a task to go into the lab and take a photo. That was where his problem began. This makes the book interesting to read. The author puts on a masterpiece. I will like to rate Project Tau four out of four. It deserves all the rating.

Science Fiction Books have a cut in my Love for Novels. The author captured my imagination to its fullest extent, it made me believe human cloning is the near future science, on the other hand the author managed to bring up themes of human rights, slavery, and abuse. It is due to this level of imagination that I give Project Tau 4 out of 4 stars.

Sci-Fi books are my favorite genre and Project Tau didn't disappoint. I liked the way the author inserted humor during the dark situations. I rate this book an absolute 4 out of 4 stars.

I'm not a fan of sci-fi books, but this book in particular, the suspense, the urge to know what;s next will stop you from putting the book down. I'm intrigued by how far science has gone.
