I really enjoyed DC Comics and X-Men. If this book compares to them, then I think I would love to explore it too. Thanks for the detailed review and recommendation.

This book will appeal to dystopian fiction fans. It’s not my cup of tea, and I would have a problem with the profanity it contains, so I’ll likely pass. Thank you for such a nicely detailed review!

Latest Review: We are Voulhire: The Flesh of the Mind by Matthew Tysz

Post by odlanra »

“An engaging story that blurs the lines between the hero and the villain.” Wow! Will the story be emotionally packed and conflict driven?...But then, a story about space asteroids and aliens and suddenly pulling it down to earth-like scenarios of drugs and riots would somehow be too much of a dilution for me. But again on second thought, it might be interesting! Perhaps we can take a look how will the author combine science fiction to crime scenarios, if any. Just as the review mentioned, it would have then the Marvel superhero setting. And yes, there is something disturbing when you give a machine gun to a child. I agree with the review.

A dystopian future action packed fast novel is my kind of book. I would love to read and explore the many characters of this book. Thanks for the review!

It seems like this one would do well as a series of comic books or a movie, both of which i would be interested in. I suppose, though, that I would have enjoyed this book in my younger days.

Minutia and Calvin sound exciting to read about. It is even more amazing that the X -men is referenced in this book.

I don't care much for dystopian themes, so I don't think I will want to meet Nerosion, The Man in the Dirty Robes, or Minutia. But a child should have no business with high-powered weapons! God help us!

There's a lot going on in this dystopian novel. Makes me wonder the connection between Minutia, Calvin, Olpha, and "The Man in the Dirty Robes."

This sounds like a fascinating dystopian novel with rich characters and an even richer premise. Great review.

This is an interesting take on asteroids in novels/movies. Usually, chaos breaks out AFTER an asteroid hits Earth. In this novel, though, the chaos comes after the asteroid is prevented from hitting Earth. I'd love to see how the author ties that into Minutia and Calvin's mission and the story in general. Tactile Therapy sounds like it doesn't have a full moment, which is a good thing.

Aliens and alien super powers makes me really love this book and it’s also action packed. I’m curious as to whether the artifact was received from earth.

I thought that this book was all about healing because of the word 'therapy.' Your review is very insightful. I laughed when I realized that the book was a sci-fi and had alien characters.

This sounds like an exciting and fun read. The author did a good job with characters as it seems. Even though there's many characters they all seems to be well developed and relatable. Congrats on BOTD!!

Aliens and actions sound like a good adventure to read. I loved your review of the book. It sounds like quite an intriguing book. I also don't feel comfortable about reading about a child handling a machine gun but as you said it is a character plot and adds something to the book.
