That’s not much time to prepare for the safety and relocation of everyone currently needing help. Congratulations on BOTD!

A fascinating science fiction novel "Exodus" by Jean Hackensmith @ Joseph McDowell, which tells the story of the impending destruction of Earth and the search for a new planet by the survivors.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.

The addition of "normal people" running away from the civilization breakdown outside the base brings a feeling of empathy into the story and refreshes our mind about the importance of humans. Congrats on #BOTD!

While reading Apocalypse Sci-Fi, I feel like they kind of predict the future. I love the mystery and tech-advanced scenes in this genre. For this book, I believe it is also likeable because of its perfect OBC rating. Nice review!

Terrific review of "Exodus by Jean Hackensmith and Joseph McDowell". A fascinating science fiction novel. The inclusion of astrophysics in the story is attractive.The book masterfully merges scientific elements with compelling storytelling, prompting readers to consider their own choices in the face of catastrophic events.

Congrats on the BOTD!
In science fiction authors Joseph McDowell and Jean Hackensmith's book "Exodus," as a neutron star threatens to destroy Earth, humanity is frantically searching for a new planet. I'd want to know if Garrett and his squad are successful in their goal because it seems like a really exciting story.

I'm not particularly fond of sci-fi books like this, especially since the theme has been tackled before. But after I read the first handful of pages, I think this one will be worth the time. Whoa! What a beginning! And, not to mention, the writing is exceptional.

Exodus by Jean Hackensmith @ Joseph McDowell is a science fiction novel that tells the story of the impending destruction of Earth and the search for a new planet by the survivors. A neutron star named Ulysses is heading for Earth, with a predicted impact date of April 14, 2028, while the current year is 2023. With less than five years to plan, prepare, and ensure the necessary technology is in place for travel, the world is at a critical point. Sacrifices have to be made, hard decisions need to be taken, and new relationships are formed during this period of crisis. Astrophysics is crucial at this tipping point.

Apocalyptic novels are no longer my cup of tea. They are too scary. This one will happen in 2028, barely four years from now. That makes it more scary. Besides, science fiction usually confuses me. I guess I'm not meant for Exodus.

The book makes the reader ask themselves, "What will you do if you know the world will end in 5 years?" It's a beautiful and interesting read. Great review.

Robert Andrew's review of Exodus by Jean Hackensmith @ Joseph McDowell is extremely informative and engaging. He nicely laid down the background story of the book which slowly transitioned to main characters and the theme of the book . He kept the deep facts of the story hidden to maintain the thrill and suspense and to motivate readers to find themselves out what was it about through their own quest and journey of reading. He highly applauded author for the good work of great scientific research and enquiry.He also mentioned what he liked most about the book. Finally he gave it a 5 star rating with fair rationale and invited readers of science fiction and others to enjoy reading this beautiful book. It was a lovely review to have a good idea of the book.

The book sounds interesting with an intense and thrilling plot where humans try to survive the apocalypse finding ways to move to another planet. Besides the book gives a lot of interesting scientific details like astrophysics, space shuttles, and the study of the solar system which might be interesting too. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

Thanks for the detailed review. I also enjoyed the sample, reminding me of Stargate and other movies from my youth. This is a very well-written sci-fi novel.
