Review of 30th Century: Escape (General Audience Edition)
[Following is a volunteer review of "30th Century: Escape (General Audience Edition)" by Mark Kingston Levin PhD.]
In the book 30th Century: Escape (General Audience Edition) by Mark Kingston Levin PhD, we join Jennifer Hero on an extraordinary journey through time and space. After finding herself stranded in the ancient past, Jennifer has to navigate the challenges of the twenty-first century while concealing her true identity and abilities. This book offers a glimpse into a future world trapped in the past. Join Jennifer as she embarks on a quest for survival, adaptation, and a chance to forge a new future in an unfamiliar era.
Jennifer has just finished her shower and put on some spare clothes provided by Alice. As she steps out, Alice suggests taking a simple test on an ancient computing device, sparking Jennifer's curiosity. Reluctantly, Jennifer agrees and sits down to take the test. To her surprise, the questions on the test are much easier than what she's accustomed to in her time. Wanting to blend in and not draw attention to her advanced intellect, Jennifer intentionally answers some questions incorrectly. However, when Alice checks her results, Jennifer is shocked to find out that she scored an impressive 91% despite deliberately answering only a fraction of the questions. How would this result affect her journey? Grab a copy.
One positive aspect of the book is its engaging characters, like Jennifer, who faces challenges and discovers new things throughout the story. For example, when Jennifer impressed Alice with her quick thinking during a flight plan calculation, I felt excited to see her intelligence in action. Also, the book's descriptive writing style paints vivid pictures of the settings and events. When Jennifer cleans up after being stranded on the island, the author's detailed descriptions make readers feel like they're right there with her, experiencing the relief of being clean after days in the wilderness. In terms of the editing, I was impressed, as I didn't encounter any while reading.
The beginning of the story is a bit confusing, as it jumps right into the action without much explanation. And it was something that made me almost give up. I feel like the beginning of a book should be simple; this would allow readers to flow well. I will recommend this book to lovers of sci-fi. The rating is five out of five stars; the positives far outweigh the negatives.
