Review of 30th Century: Escape (General Audience Edition)
30th Century: Escape (General Audience Edition) by Mark Kingston Levin PhD is a science fiction novel that explores the issues of love, responsibility, and existence. This book made me travel through time and also consider the outcomes of technological advancement, which are complicated. Due to the story’s setting, the author was able to develop several themes.
The book talks about a powerful female character known as Jennifer Hero, who comes from the 30th century but ends up in the 21st century. Jennifer is aware of the dangers in her time when technology has developed. In the 30th century, there are genetically modified humans called "the Syndos," who are in control against the "Naturals." They also have devious plans against the Naturals. This is what prompts Captain Jennifer Hero and her team to travel back to the past to prevent the chaos that is the reality in the 30th century. Things, however, get complicated, leading her to travel alone, not to their intended time but another time. Her journey in the 21st century is a tedious one, as she also has to deal with responsibilities, her memories, and the hope for a better future.
This book has an engaging plot, which I found very appealing. The characters in the book are excellent and realistic, and the best of them all is Jennifer, who is depicted as a strong, courageous, intelligent, and inspiring character. The settings in the book are well depicted to the extent that I can easily be placed in the shoes of the characters. The book is very straightforward in its structure, but it does talk about the ways of the characters, and it does a good job of maintaining the technicalities that are involved in the book.
The only thing I can say that I dislike about this book is that the dialogues are mostly good, but the problem is that most of the moments of dialogue look very monotonous and artificial. This, however, does not change my rating, so I still give this book 5 out of 5 stars for being a good book.
There are a few grammatical mistakes in this book, and it is very well written. I also proofread intensively when reading, and there were only three errors, hence it was professionally edited. Science fiction book lovers will definitely find this book interesting and worthy to be read; therefore, I recommend this book to them.

Based on your review it seems as if Mark Kingston Levin did a respectable job of building realistic characters that behave consistently with the premise of the story. A story line that examines a time when genetically modified humans are in control of society would naturally touch on several profound themes.
