I love this book. I was especially impressed with the science involved. One portion, (I am ashamed to say) made me cry. I can't wait for the next book. I hope there is a next book. This story begs to be continued.

You can't beat this story for keeping your attention. If you look hard enough, you can see the thread of some contemporary human problems addressed. The characters are what hold you and the story line can make you think (even if it does hurt your brain). But the ending puts the capstone to the book. It was unexpected...who are these people of the future, anyway? Even in the future, all is not what it seems and what we think we know about ourselves may not be what we need to know.

Intriguing view into a possible future Earth. Grant Macaw offers a glimpse into the future full of personalities, challenges and answers open to your own interpretation. It's well worth the time to read.

Very interesting story line. Blends science fiction, technology, philosophy and religion. Made me think while reading and after.

I'm not a science fiction enthusiast, but this book held my interest. The odd character names were a bit thick to wade through, and the setting was hard to figure out initially, but as the story continued, things became more clear yet also more intriguing. On the whole a very well written piece that will make you think. It's a classic tale of good versus evil with solid characters that you root for and others that you despise. There is predictable action as well as surprise. In the end there is hope.

A good read.

If you like Sci Fi, give this book a try. Give yourself some time to get use to how this book is written and then begin to fall in love with the characters. Once you get into it, you can't put it down. The characters are intriguing and the story is fresh and creative. Would make a great movie!

An intriguing view into a possible future for Earth. Grant Macaw creates a future full of interesting characters, challenges and ethical questions--once you get started you won't want to put this book down.
