Another story? by Thelsa Theo tells the story of a young South African man, Jan De Wets, who bagged a scholarship to study organic chemistry at the university. After years of studying at the university, he became a neurosurgeon and got married to Alisha, a physician.

Vic Lerm, a policeman who saved Jan from death, had gotten information about an experiment that was carried out in an underground vault in Zimbabwe, and he was sent there to make an investigation on what was truly going on. Unknown to him, this could be the beginning of uncovering a mystery and finding answers to the questions that were bothering his mind.

Firstly, I liked how the author wrote deeply about science and religion, leaving questions for me to think about. I have always wondered how society could function without science or religion, as these two different concepts contribute to history. I have also wondered if religion and science could ever coexist; I was intrigued to read a book that discussed both concepts. As we all know, religion has it that humans were created by a supreme being, but science gives theories about evolution. Although science mostly aims at improving humanity, there are still groups of people in society against it. We can find such people in this book. These people tried to eliminate the elites because they were ready to utilize the knowledge of science to save mankind and animals. As I read through it, I was eager to find out if these people had their way.

I read about deep-rooted corruption in Africa. It was interesting to see how criminals were backed up by powerful and influential people. To me, this was a complete reflection of our modern society. I can't fail to acknowledge the author's description; it was top-notch. Most times, science-fiction books could be overwhelming, but this book had a great storyline that kept me glued to the pages. This book is one of the best science-fiction books that I have read. I liked that this book inspired me to think more about the ideas that science could birth and how the impossible could be made possible.

I observed a few errors as I read through this book. However, the errors were not up to ten, so this book was professionally edited. There was nothing to dislike about this book. I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. The storyline was top-notch, and I had a good time reading this book.

I recommend this book to science-fiction lovers. Readers interested in science developments should enjoy reading this book because it encourages logical and critical thinking.

I had thought about connections between religion and science and have read some books based on tho curiosity. However, it won't be wrong if I read this too. Will it?
You are yet to be the best version of yourself. Keep refining.
