I've read parts of this book in the past and it is a fascinating read with elements reminiscent of Huxley's Brave New World. I look forward to reading the rest of this sci-fi novel. Thanks for the informative review!

What you call sci-fi seems to me like the future of this world, if we don't stop wasting the resources especially water. Thanks for the review!

I really want to know what will happen with the unborn twins. I’m not a sci-fi reader, but I’m invested in this plot point.
There is no frigate like a book
To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!
-Emily Dickinson

Seems to be another great book to read.This sci-fi novel again tells about the repercussions of environmental problem such as climate change and how this problems has caused to another sets of world problems. This is a story that will prompt us to question the future of the world with all these scarcity of resources such as water. I love to know how the couple will evade forge's rules.Congrats to the BOTD!

Wow, a book based on climate change and its adverse effects from a sci-fi point of view. Pretty interesting. I wonder what happens to the Forge corporation does the system collapse?

Sounds like a nice thriller that would be engaging. I think this is a book that is trying to talk about climate change as well. Thanks for the review.

Hi!

Congratulations on winning the BOTD reviewer!

I absolutely agree with anyone who says the Forge Corporation's government rules are inhumane. I find the fact that the couple who is effected is extremely close to the government to be ironic. I also believe that there are lots of opportunities to be explored because of the closeness. Are they under more scrutiny and careful observation because the husband works for the Corporation or are they given the "benefit" of not being closely observed or limited as an employment "perk" would cause tension and probably effect how the characters choose to solve their problems.

I am pleased to learn that there is a high quality level of character and plot development. (I believe there are sequels so the unanswered questions might be answered).

Thank you for the review.

Another sci fi story with the theme of climate change, with the background of a company that handles clean water and strict regulations, namely the number of children allowed for each child. Very interesting and suspenseful story. I can understand why the sci fi theme raises the issue of global warming or climate change, because these are actual and factual issues.
Interesting story, and you have reviewed it very well. Thank you.

I became a fan of Tayma's writing after reading her book "Cat Boss'. Sure, her writing style is a little slow-paced but the story never loses its intrigue. Looking forward to diving into this one! Great review!

The unborn by Tayma Tameem explores the self centeredness of human kind. Due to scarcity of resources, (more especially water) because of the negative impacts of global warming, people fight for their survival without considering the feelings of others. Well done on a wonderful review.

It's saddening that forge corporations inflict suffering on the people by their inhumane rules for access to water. It is a great read. Nice review...

The sci-fi fantasies of the future made me love this book. The unruly and inhuman behaviors makes one have a glimpsy of the future we are likely to face if we don't do the best ti climate change today. People with better future hopes about climate change and those who love love sci-fi THE UNBORN is the ideal book.

The book seems to be about hedonism, chaos, greed and power as mankind struggles to control dwindling resources. It also seems to take us away from what we do naturally and into an array of artificial systems and functioning. Love the review.
